I went from sleeping 4h a day, eating junk food and living a pretty much sedentary lifestyle, to sleeping 8h minimum, counting my macros and calories daily, and exercising 6 days a week.
During the summer I read "Why We Sleep" and thought "damn... maybe I should change my lifestyle". So I went 0 to 100 in no time.
It's been almost 5 months of consistency and I've never felt better and now I can't see myself going back to the way I was.
- mattmaroon 4y agoCurious: were you sleeping 4 hrs a day intentionally? Did you use an alarm? Or did you have a hard time sleeping more and figured that out?
- glanzwulf 4y agoIt was intentional. So to wake up I had an alarm since I had to be up for work in the morning. But for bedtime, I would go to sleep super late every day. I'd spend the time playing videogames, watching movies, etc. The reasoning was, I wanted to "enjoy" the time I had after work and didn't want to sleep, because going to sleep would mean after a couple of hours I'd have to wake up and go to work. So I'd prolong that time as much as I could.
