I got 99 problems and sleep is number 1
All the toddler parents out there know the feeling!
The last 3 weeks have been pretty intense
Midnight awakenings, 1-2 hours back to sleep, early mornings, repeat
You feel like a zombie!
Good luck focussing at work
Or eating well, where’s the bread?
Training? Just barely (I have my minimum standard of 10 minutes of movement that I do)
Often our personal training clients have big plans about the changes they’re going to make to their nutrition, or exercise, cut down on alcohol…
However, if you’re sleeping badly, any of these changes can seem impossible
Everything else is a lot easier when you’ve had a good night sleep
Particularly if the poor sleep is ongoing
How you fix your sleep depends on where you’re struggling most
As always, we use an individualised approach to our sleep coaching
Each person is different, and so the starting points will always be different
Just like if you’re changing your nutrition
Some people need help falling asleep
Others wake up and can’t get back to sleep
Or wake up to wee more than once a night
This might be you, you’re in bed for 8-9 hours and wake up feeling hungover
Whatever it is, there are ways to improve
The biggest issue just needs to be identified and often it can be easily attacked
If you’re experiencing terrible sleep and are looking to get on track with your health and fitness
Still start exercising (it will help with the sleep), but prioritise fixing your sleep!
