This week we are once again joined by the fantastic Coach Dean Hammond. He wrote an article on our website late last year all about sleep so it made sense to get him on this weeks episode. It's great us telling you all about the importance of sleep with big bits of data etc but what will really make the difference is real solid actionable steps. Coach Dean lays out his 4 step action plan for a better nights sleep.
We are all aware that sleep is important and that the more we get the better we tend to feel? Well, on a recent Instagram poll by Bill (Which is mainly physically active people) the results were somewhat concerning! 75% said they get 0-7 hours a sleep a night and 25% said they get 8+ hours. 88% said they are on their phone right before bed and 12% are not. Even we fall into the higher percentages so we are not "sleep saints" by any means. However, after listening to Deans action plan I think we will all make a conscious effort to improve sleep in both quality and duration!
On our Youtube Channel, we'll have an extended sleep special where you'll be able to see Dean deliver his action points. You'll also get to appreciate Deans excited passionate personality on screen! We've had Dean on twice before so if you haven't already here are both these episodes. Myths Roundup. Skinny Jab, Juice Plus & Boombod.
