Sleep is so important to how we experience life. When we’re asleep the body and brain have time to restore and recover and that’s crucial for our physical health and mental wellbeing. Just think of how good you felt when you last had a great sleep. Did you wake up feeling refreshed and full of energy for the day. Now, remember how you felt after a poor night’s sleep? Did you eat well? Did you want to exercise? Sleeping well is what we all want and it’s what EMS training really helps with. But before we talk about how Electro Muscle Stimulation session can help you get better shut eye, let’s look at why sleep is so important for healthy lives in some more detail.
If just one 20-minute EMS session a week at Feel Electric studios equals a 2-hour HIIT session, what are you waiting for? There’s only one way to feel the true power of EMS training and that’s to try it for yourself! Book a Free EMS Trial Online to Tone, Firm and Lose Weight with EMS Training.
Getting a good night’s sleep is so important to your health. Sleep, in fact, is essential to every process in the body and touches every aspect of your wellbeing. Sleep affects your physical and mental functions, influences your ability to fight disease and develop immunity, promotes a healthy metabolism, and lowers the risk of chronic disease. The number of hours we need to sleep each night varies from person to person and also depends on your age and fitness. But in general adults need at least 7 hours of sleep a night to function at an optimal level the next day. As you age, the amount of sleep you need will change but it’s not just the quantity of sleep that’s important, it’s the quality.
Without enough quality sleep, people can overeat and eat unhealthy foods. A lack of sleep can lead to you being less physically active during the day and reduce your muscle strength during exercise. Poor sleep quality is also linked to depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. The better you sleep, the healthier you’re going to be. And that’s where Feel Electric come in!
If you want to sleep like a baby, just try EMS training. Electric muscle stimulation sessions at Feel Electric can really aid good sleep. EMS training helps restore your muscles, improve muscle tension and even help ease everyday aches and pains. That makes it easier for your body to relax and when your body is relaxed, your mind finds it easier to settle down to sleep. EMS exercise can also help reduce the risk of sleep problems like insomnia and sleep apnoea. Try to avoid any EMS training too close to your normal bedtime though as your body needs a few hours to calm down before sleep. Slip into a slumber more easily with consistent EMS sessions.
What you eat has an enormous impact on your sleep quality and length. Caffeine for example makes it harder to get to sleep while having too many calories or fat in your diet may hinder quality sleep. Our nutrition advice will help you sleep better by eating better. Avoid eating too close to bedtime so your body has time to digest and you’ll soon be ready for the Land of Nod!
Making sleeping easier by following a sleep routine or sleep schedule. Tap into the human love of habit and try going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time. You’ll find it easier if you maintain a sleep schedule. Want to jump out of bed full of energy? Create a sleep routine that you’ll find it easy to stick to.
Our last tip for how to get the best sleep possible is one that you might have difficulty keeping to. And that’s banning the blue light of phones, tablets, and TVs when you’re in bed. When you’re scrolling your iPad or flicking through television channels your brain is being tricked into thinking it’s still daytime. And that means you won’t be in any mood for nodding off. Put your electronic gadgets away at least an hour before you go up to bed and avoid switching on the television in the bedroom and you’ll sleep a lot better!
