Sleep Therapy
While striving for improved physical fitness, many Americans overlook sleep’s vital role in
achieving optimal physical performance. Research reveals that sleep deprivation can affect
us physically – negatively impacting coordination, agility, mood and energy. In turn, physical
activity can improve your sleep quality. In fact, the Better Sleep Council sponsored a
national consumer survey to gauge attitudes related to sleep and physical performance.
Sleep Wakes Up Your Fitness Routine
People who get 7 hours of sleep or more are more likely to engage in higher-intensity
workouts (biking, running, weight lifting) than people who don’t get as much sleep.
Solid sleep boosts energy
People who sleep well feel benefits in many ways.
Nearly one-third (32%) of people say the best thing about getting a good night’s
sleep is improved physical energy
30% of respondents also said sound sleep positively impacts their mental attitude
24% of those surveyed said a good night’s sleep impacts their alertness
Sleep is the best workout motivator
If you need to get to the gym, getting a good night’s sleep will help get you there.
Seven in 10 persons report that a restful night in bed makes them more likely
to work out the next day.
38% of women say that they are more likely to have a better workout after a night of
peaceful sleep, compared to 28% of men
The secret to sweet dreams
To sleep better, get a new mattress.

tended to report that they sleep on newer mattresses
