More Sleep = Faster Weight Loss
Since my team and I specialize in weight loss and body transformation we consider it our job to be up to
date on all the safe and effective methods of weight loss out there (we even research the unhealthy ways so that we can explain to clients why they shouldn't be using them).
Having said that, it isn't too often that a client has difficulty losing weight on our programs since we customize each program based on their needs. However, just last week we had a client hit a plateau where their weight wouldn't budge. Their nutrition and workouts were right where they should be and they were really hoping to see the results continue to come as they had for the past few weeks.
Well, after confirming that their meal plans and workouts were up to date we asked them to do one simple thing for us. They were asked not to use their computer or watch TV in bed for 1 week and they had to get 8 hours of sleep every night. (This client typically got no more than 6 hours of sleep per night and worked a stressful job).
Without going into the science of how sleep effects weight loss, I'm happy to say that this client lost just over 3 pounds that week without changing a thing except sleeping 8 hours per night. Not bad, for catching a little extra shut eye…
So, if you're at a loss for why your weight loss efforts have stalled try unwinding before bed and getting under the covers just a little bit earlier each night.
