[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 225660, member: 43589"] I never understood the importance of sleep and especially circadian cycle until later in my life. The first 21 years of my life, I ran night clubs and was generally up all night and train with weights in the afternoon before going in to work. I trained with a guy who was a multi-world record holder. He told me that I had a lot of potential as a powerlifter but would never make it to the top until I got a job during day light hours. Years later I put myself in that position after going back and getting my master's degree. When I hit my 40's I was quickly rising to the top of my game, It wasn't maybe 5 years after working day jobs that I was rated #1 and #2 in the world in two different weight classes in the same year. No doubt my sleep cycle was so screwed up I was not able to take that next step. Since then I have done quite a bit of research on the circadian cycle and how it effects your athletic potential. Good stuff! Thanks for posting this information Nelson. I actually have been tracking my sleep for a few years now. These new FitBit watches monitor things like SP02, HR variability, temperature variations, resting HR, light sleep phases, Deep sleep, REM and awake time. They are pretty accurate. [/QUOTE]
