Sleep

I try really hard to be healthy, but the one place I keep failing — sleep. I never get enough of it! I got to bed at 2am and wake up at 7.45am. My goal is to average at least 7 hours a night. Yeah, right. That said, it’s time for bed.

Two Flaws: Sleep & Stretches

Quick post today since I had little sleep last night. Gonna take this time to talk about two things I need to improve on. One is sleep (I don’t get nearly enough sleep as I should) and stretching. I’d like to do more stretching exercises post workout.

So first sleep. On a typical week day, I’m usually in bed by 2am and awake by 7:45am. 5 hours and 45 minutes of sleep isn’t bad, but I’d like to make that 6 hours and 45 minutes. Not to mention, I go to bed at 2am on a good night. Lately it’s been more like 2:30am. (Why? ‘Cause I’m online reading blogs or blogging myself!)

Now on to stretching. Last week my muscles were ridiculously sore. In particular my chest. I’d like to do more stretching to help my muscles recuperate. To elongate them as well. I don’t want to have compact muscles, but rather long, strong muscles.

So starting this week I will shoot to do a little more of both. And on that note, it’s time for some sleep!
