The dangers of athletes getting poor sleep

It’s dark. Are you laying awake staring at the ceiling, negative thoughts swirling through your mind; every possible, worst-case scenario being conjured up?

You are not alone.

In fact, you’re pretty normal. 

Sleep deprivation is a common problem for elite athletes and can happen for a variety of reasons: early morning practice, late night competitions, travel, and –โ  more commonly – worrying about your performance. 

While it may not seem like a big deal, sleep deprivation can have serious consequences. Lack of sleep can lead to decreased performance, increased injuries, and impaired decision making. 

And this is becoming increasingly normal for modern-day athletes as our lives become more and more highly pressured.

That being said, you could be doing it smarter.

Here's a snippet of the advice I gave one of our top athletes about what is keeping her awake and what she can do to take back control… and I thought it would be useful advice to share if you find your brain continuously putting itself on night watch. 

Here in this video is a sniper approach to what you could be doing about it.
