Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night?Used to get 8.5-9 hours per night. That makes an enormous difference in recovery since it's during the deep sleep you recover.
The last few years, I only get about 6-7 hours on average and very little deep sleep (due to a medical issue ). This means that I can't train as hard and even though I'm much stronger than before, I can't maintain the power output for as long, basically staying at the same average power over a longer distance. |
