Episode 009:  Research shows that you can improve your shooting percentage and sprint times by optimizing your sleep.  This week's guest is The Online Sleep Coach, Nick Lambe, and he shares a progression to improve your sleep.  

Nick is a massage therapist, strength coach, sleep coach and health coach, but envisions himself firstly as a healthcare practitioner. He believes exercise and lifestyle interventions can be some of the most powerful medicine, especially proactively for our health. Nick has done certification work in many other aspects of health and wellness such as sleep, nutrition, behavioral psychology, heart rate variability, brain health, stress management and more.

Most notably in these lifestyle interventions, he has taken a deep dive into sleep. He believes that sleep is the foundation for health and well being, despite being often under-appreciated and undervalued. So much so that he has formed two side ventures centered around sleep. 

As “The Online Sleep Coach” he provides all things sleep and sleep education, including 1 on 1 consultations/coaching, group coaching for teams and coaches as well as speaking engagements. He does something similar in person where he resides with “Southwest Florida Sleep Coaching”
