Fitness needs good sleep, Did you know ?

Whenever you talk about being fit, the first thing that strikes your mind is balanced diet and regular exercise. Good sleep plays an important role in getting and staying fit, but sleep is often ignored.

Top reasons how sleep can help you stay fit.

1. Sleep delivers you the benefits of exercising.

“We exercise for a purpose: for cardiovascular health, to increase lean muscle mass, to improve endurance, and more. All of these ‘goals’ require sleep,” says W. Christopher Winter, MD, the president of Charlottesville Neurology and Sleep Medicine and the author of The Sleep Solution: Why Your Sleep Is Broken and How to Fix It.

2. Better sleep helps you workout better

Enough sleep helps you drive more strength, which in return helps you increase your workout. If not slept well, you can feel difficulty in exercising. (1).

3. Sleep helps your diet plan work well.

It doesn’t seem that sleep has to do anything with your diet plan, but there are studies that show getting less sleep can actually make you obese (2) In such case, even if you have a proper control on calorie intake, sleep can interfere and hold you back from losing kilos. Researchers say that sleep deprivation might lead to weight gain (3) as they decrease the amount of calories burn. Staying awake for longer period of time can make you more hungry.

4. Good sleep increases metabolism

Studies show that sleeping well can increase your metabolism levels which leads you to lose weight sooner. (4)

There is a link between sleep and workout. Good sleep helps you workout better and exercising well helps you fall asleep sooner. At Recron, we have perfectly firm mattresses, soft pillows that help you sleep well and maintain your fitness.
