Sleep 10+hrs a day
« on: April 30, 2006, 07:32:44 PM »
Is 10 hours or more sleep a day excessive? I work out everyday, and I seem much more energetic after 10+ hours of sleep a day, also more rejuvanated and stronger. What you guys think.

If that's what it takes then that's what you should do.

He still has 14 more hours of time left, 10hrs of sleep does not mean he only goes to the gym.

I make sure I get 8hrs of sleep every night and I also get a 20-30min nap every afternoon before I train, and I have a very hectic schedule. But if your time management is good getting adequate sleep should be no problem.

I guess nobody wanted to deal with his shit. maybe unrestricted FA since we did not get a QB.

I didn't really watch what happen to you guys, after friggen Dallas took Bobby Carpenter, I went Ape sh$t. We ended up taking mostly offense and did well. I'm sure you guys well bounce back, TO did a number on that team.

if i must say could not have gone better. we got the top DT in bunkley and Justice the T from usc dropped to us in the second and we got one of the top Guards jean-gilles in the 4th, along with another DT,2 WR and 1 DE/LB and 1 LB mark your calender for superbowl in jan for the birds.

Here we go. The "pigeons" will have a hell of a time with their division. Allot of talent but i'll give it to you that you guys can get a playoff spot.

As far as my boys:

Brady is God
Brady is the second coming of Joe Montana
The AFC east is in disarray
Jets - new coach, QB is a puss, won't last
Buffalo, Marv Levy? heh!!
Dolphins, 2nd year coach sexy AFC east pic but no Culpepper? Oh yeah Joey Harrington, maybe..
10-6 we make the playoffs.
Brady is God

I hope to see ya in FEB as well. Rematch!!!!!!

you must not keep up with espn brady got traded this am to the cards for leinhart and fitsgerald and a 1st rounder next year.























just kidding you can breath again. the east is a beast this year for the birds and if they don't take it then whoever does is going to be the top team for the superbowl i think.

As far as sleep goes know your body.  Its been proven though that too much sleep can actually make you more tired and less energetic. 8 hours is typically fine.  On weekends i may get a little more than that with naps thrown in.
