What goes on in the secret recovery routines of elite athletes?
This is something I have always wondered about, so I went to the person known as "the man who taught Ronaldo how to sleep" for answers, what I found was surprising...

Hi! Great video, but.. Now you can make a video of how a person who can NOT hear "silence" because he has a hearing problem called tinnitus, which causes "silence" to never exist because you hear "background noise" and the more silence, the more you hear the noise? I leave it to you, because "oh my god" as I have lived all my life without silence, I sleep well but my only noise was a fan, which has brought me problems of nasal and mouth congestion. But now in my current state, and in my physical change, the stress is less, but I still find it hard to sleep in "silence", literally. Greetings from Mexico!

The recovery section is so true. I always feel kinda sleepy around 2 PM, but I can't sleep at that time because I'm working. So I just take a 5-7 minute walk instead of reaching for the coffee. This way I don't take any caffeine that I don't need, I get my blood flowing, and I take a break from the screen. It helps out so much.

@TheSpecialJ11 Жыл бұрын

I have hour long lunch breaks and force myself to meditate/nap after I finish eating. I'm not as sleepy as I would be if I waited until 2 to nap, but I always find I'm less sleepy than if I hadn't. I also try to take late lunches for this reason, from 12-1 instead of 11-12 like most people who start work at 8 would.

I had blackout curtains growing up because my window faced a streetlight. When I moved away to college and no longer had blackout curtains, my sleep was noticeably worse. Think about how your ancestors' sleep routine would have been and mimic it. Very low light in the evening, like a campfire slowly dwindling to embers, pitch black night aside from stars and moonlight (assuming it wasn't cloudy or they weren't in a cave), and then waking up as the sun rises and the light gets into your eyes, even without direct sunlight, followed by an immediate step outside and stretch in the morning glow. In the modern day and age, we have even more control over these factors with things like comfy beds, no biting insects in the room, etc. so there's really no reason we can't all master our sleep if we put our minds to it.

Blackout curtains, keep room at 60-65 degrees, white noise (fan or air filter), light a candle to ease in (preferably lavender because its scent promotes sleep), use night mode colors on your phone screen to reduce blue light, AVOID EATING 3HRS BEFORE BED (very crucial), and a lot more optimizations.

Even something like opening the front door, I hear from across the house and worry.

I found the video very informative and well researched. I aplaude your conclusion to improved our sleep with the help of new scientific studies but foremost, to treat it as a natural and important aspect of daily life. I consider myself a minimalist and have suffered from chronic anxiety and insomnia. Nonetheless, there will always be some days were one can't sleep properly, its just human nature. The best sleep I have is in a dark, well ventilated, cold and very important, quiet environment. Some of the best nights I have had have been in a tent, sleeping in nature on hard ground. I don't need no fancy gear to know if my sleep quality is bad or not. A proper awareness of ones body and traking symptoms over time will also give you good feedback. Thanks again for confirming my minimalistic thoughts. Little critic: I appreciate the visual effects and it makes the video more alive. Nonetheless, I though it was a bit saturated in this video and maybe all the work for the visual effects would not have been needed for just a quality content dirven video. Maybe just my perception. Sorry for the long post... Sleep tight

Great content as always. The biggest, simplest thing folks can't respect are the fundamentals. Maintaining consistency within the fundamentals will allow you to achieve 90% of your goal. Once you have that foundation established, you can start to look into the nuance that develops the final 10%. But people don't want to accept the long game because they are tricked into believing there is 1 single thing that will get you to the 1%, but the 1% know there are dozens of factors that culminate in that placement. If you build consistency with the basics, no matter your discipline, you will be within the top 10% within that discipline. Consistency isn't difficult, it's boring & simple, but this is what makes it so impactful and challenging for the majority to abide by.

Some adjustments I have made. I get in the gym by 5 AM and eat my first meal between 7-8 AM. I then go for a lil walk and then take a 1-2 hour nap before noon. I used to never take naps but it helps a lot. I eat my last meal at 12-3 PM at the latest. I work nights in a restaurant and take some bone broth with me to work and drink mostly water. A huge game changer is getting Blue Light Blocking Glasses that I put on at work by 6-7 PM and I swear my sleep got much deeper every night. I limit my cell phone use to almost nothing when I get home and fall asleep to Yoga Nidra. I can't have any food still digesting when I lay down. I used to eat til I slept at night and never got good sleep. This new approach is really helping me! Oh yeah and also I consume only half-caffeine coffee in the morning and my last cup is before my workout. If I want coffee at work its always decaf.

If you want to sleep well, avoid screens and artificial lights as much as possible. And definitely avoid them after the sun sets. When you can't avoid them, wear blue blocker lenses and get a blue filter for your computer. Most importantly, get as much sun you can during the sunrise and the first three hours of sunlight. While getting sunlight, make sure to go barefoot and ground, and do as much exercise as you can outside. But if you can't get sunlight, consider using a red light therapy panel and using full spectrum lighting in the house and workspace. The last three hours of the day are also good, and watching the sunset is beneficial. When the sun sets, either go to bed or only use natural light such as fire and candles, or if you have to have other light use a red light. Always try to get to bed soon after sunset because that begins the period when your body produces melatonin that not only helps you sleep deeply but to heal. About diet and nutrition, don't eat within three hours of bedtime or in the middle of night, and maybe take taurine before going to sleep that will promote taurine production. Sleep masks can be helpful.

This really makes me feel like google can read my mind, I’ve been worrying recently because of anxiety and stress from track causing sleep deprivation and event just made a Reddit post asking about solutions and now mere minutes later I get this recommended

As a lifestyle Coach i can admit. very people know how to optimize sleep. Even less people who apply it. Grounding, Blue light blockers, RLT during daytime, Making your room the right tempature, fully dark. etc etc

@kassamFaruk 11 ай бұрын

grounding?

@GezondmetBart98 11 ай бұрын

@@kassamFaruk Grounding is where you make contact with the earth. usually via bare foot. This has a lot of benefits, you can google it. but the most important one for sleep is: it helps setting your circadian rhythm. because the ground absorbs sun light, and your body (feet) can use this light information to improve your circadian rhythm

Worth noting is that athletes getting allocated 12 hours of "sleep" is because they are doing other stuff in the bed that the life coach's aren't going to put on the calendar as a separate activity. It's privacy protection.

One of the things many people don't know is it helps to have your room slightly colder.

Rest and recovery are underrated; sleep is the best means of recovering.

I’m shocked that it was not mentioned to use something as simple as a mouth tape as it unlocks you to only sleep through your nose which is mandatory if you want to reach low heart rhythm and deep sleep. What is of further help is to use earplugs in case you want to go a further level. Also, me being on carnivore diet helps tremendously. Not having a lot of carbs, especially before sleep is life changing. With only consuming protein and fat is a game changer to your everyday focus. Trust me.

Breathing through your nose is an evolutionary thought as of you having to run away from a prey. It’s Adrenalin being utilized. Sleeping does not require you to breath through your mouth. It’s unnecessary as nose breathing is what calms. PS. Nose breathing gives you a stronger, more defined, and healthier looking face.

True. Facts. Nose Breathinf also improves your athletic performance. Relative . So if you use your mouth, your body will be faster (only in emergencies)

If you drink coffee the moment you wake up and only drink an hour or two window as you wake up plus do your workout before going to your job, you will have excreted most of the caffeine out of your system and your body will adapt to the caffeine making more sleep receptors which in turn makes you sleepier. Add to that, having a day or two in the week without drinking coffee and you have properly used and cycled caffeine to take maximum advantage of its positive effects whilst minimizing the it's negatives.

I’ll give that a try …plain coffee or mixed shit with it?

@101kickart 10 ай бұрын

basically for normal people: 1. just dont use 'screens' an hour or 2 before sleeping 2. be in good health mentally and physically and relax; don't get stressed. 3. Start your sleep between 9pm- 10:30pm. This is to sleep 8-10 hours on normal days.

I meditate 20 minutes just before sleeping. Wear brown shades after 6, keep lights dimmed vdin ur home and bedroom. I also eat a very light supper, mostly lentil soup. Sleep is gud. Also, no coffee after 3 pm.

There's nothing worse than having a hard workout and not being able to sleep and then feeling like you got hit by a truck the next day.

I appreciate the effort that went into this. That said, this video feels like it says a lot, but doesn’t really provide much information. It briefly mentions a few ideas and immediately shoots most of them down. The thesis is that he is going to try to sleep like an elite athlete for 30 days, but doesn’t talk at all about the changes outside of saying that he took some supplements and now drinks a little less caffeine. The bit about the 2pm nap is interesting. Otherwise I don’t feel like I got much out of this. Would have been really interesting to see him try sleeping 12 hours a night in an altitude chamber for a month, which feels like what the premise promised.

4:14 imma be honest, it’s because they are physical specimens that exert a fuck ton of energy. This part isn’t really a question. Whenever I think about how tired I was after playing football in the lowest league, I can’t imagine how much more energy they exert during training or a real match, and this guys for all athletes, whether it’s a super physical sport, or a mental demanding game. They need that focus that sleep gives you.

@EarthMan-hx3xb 6 ай бұрын

Yes if you train hard early and dont have a regular job then everyone would sleep or nap more, especially if doing more than one training session per day. This is a routine for pro athletes and not possible for normal people.
