STIMULATE NOURISH RECOVER

All three points are equally important because if you're not recovering then you're likely not getting the full benefits from strength training and even if you're not working out you're still suffering from dysregulated hormonal balance caused by lack of sleep.

Even one night of poor sleep, less than 5 hours, can throw you off your game.

Here's a short list of how chronically poor sleep can affect you.

- Lower resting metabolic rate

- Increased ghrelin levels (hunger hormone)

- Elevated cortisol levels (stress hormone)

- Decreased leptin levels (satiety hormone)

- Increased susceptibility to poor food choices

- Overeating tendencies

- Weight gain

- Emotional stress due to guilt from poor food choices

- Hormonal responses exacerbating emotional stress

I know we all have to work and make money but when you have multiple days in a row when you know you're going to be expected to perform at your best and are expected to be somewhere at a certain time then you should flex that discipline muscle by setting up a bedtime routine so that you can get to bed with enough time to have 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep.
