SLEEP YOUR

WAY TO FIT.

Okay, so you can’t exactly “sleep your way to fit,” but did you
know that sleep can still play an important part in your weight
loss strategy? This often overlooked component of a healthy
routine can make a big difference in helping you look better
and feel better.

The importance of sleep to your fitness routine and healthy
diet has more to do with what happens when you don’t get
enough sleep than what happens when you do. Lack of sleep
influences the body’s hormonal response and can make you
more prone to gain weight and overeat.
Those who get less than an adequate amount of sleep each
night may also feel sluggish and less energized, making them
more likely to skip a workout and generally be less active
throughout the day.
When you add these things together, it’s easy to see what a
powerful impact not getting enough sleep could have on your
routine, even when you’re doing everything else right.
MAKE SURE YOU ARE
GETTING THE RIGHT AMOUNT
OF SLEEP FOR YOU AND YOUR
LIFESTYLE AND TO WAKE UP
FEELING RESTED AND READY
TO FACE THE DAY!
