8 hours of sleep is a myth - sports edition

Once I recognized that I could sleep in phases, the game changed for me. Humans naturally have nap times built into our bodies. From 1-3pm and 5-7pm it is perfectly fine to take a 30-90 minute nap without disrupting our nighttime sleep. You don’t even have to actually fall asleep, but just be still and not disturbed so your body can relax.
