System: Fitness: Sleep
Sleep is a time for rest and healing, neither of which you should deprive yourself of. The right amount of sleep prepares you for the next day's challenges. Without enough, your body and mind will be unprepared. People who don't get enough sleep (including those with sleeping problems) are more likely to encounter stress and any one of a number of related health troubles.
A regular amount of sleep brings mental focus and consistency to your program. The more your body gets into the rhythm of regular sleep, the more the rest of your life can find a similar, consistent rhythm.
