Today we have a question from Mark, “How much sleep should I be getting for weight loss?

Sleep-Better

That’s a very good question. Now, sleep is important for many hormonal reasons:

Number One: you’re going to increase your growth hormone while you’re asleep, which happens after about 90 minutes of good sleep.

The reason you want to increase your growth hormone is more muscle mass means a faster metabolism, therefore you’re going to burn calories at a faster rate while you’re doing nothing, watching TV, therefore your body fat will lower.

It also increases or regulates your leptin levels and your ghrelin levels, which are the hormones that are in charge of your appetite, how hungry you get and how fast your metabolism is. The more regulated those hormones are, the better you’re going to be in terms of losing body fat.

It also improves your memory and reaction times, meaning you’ll be better functioning at work and through day to day life, and you’ll be able to give a little bit extra in the sessions.

Be careful not to sleep too much though, as oversleeping has been linked to obesity.

So optimally you’d like to be able to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep every single night.

Our question to you this week is, “How many hours of sleep are you getting every night?”

Thank you very much for watching; as always, if you have any questions, please leave them in the comments section below. This is Lewis at the DVCC; have a great day!
