This session discusses the significant impact of sleep duration on physical performance and recovery, highlighting how insufficient sleep can negatively affect metrics like lower-body lifting velocity and perceived exertion. It then explores the potential of daytime napping as a strategy to improve recovery and enhance performance, even in individuals who are not sleep-deprived. Research suggests that naps of moderate length (30-60 minutes), taken at specific times and followed by a sufficient wake period, can yield positive results for physically active adults and athletes. Ultimately, the text concludes that napping can be a beneficial practice for recovery, whether experiencing sleep deprivation or getting adequate night-time rest.
