Proven solutions for a better night's sleep, from the "sleep guru" to elite athletes--rest for success in work, sports, and life

One-third of our lives -- that's 3,000 hours a year--is spent trying to sleep. The time we spend in bed shapes our moods, motivation, alertness, decision-making skills, reaction time, creativity . . . in short, our ability to perform, whether at work, at home, or at play. But most of us have disturbed, restless nights, relying on over-stimulation from caffeine and sugar to drag us through the day. The old eight-hour rule just doesn't work, and it's time for a new approach.

Endorsed by leading professionals in sports and business, Sleep shares a new program to be your personal best. Nick Littlehales is the leading sport sleep coach to some of the biggest names in the sporting world, including record-breaking cyclists for British Cycling and Team Sky, international soccer teams, NBA and NFL players, and Olympic and Paralympic athletes. Here, he shares his proven strategies for anyone to use. You'll learn how to map your unique sleep cycle, optimize your environment for recovery, and cope with the demands of this fast-paced, tech-driven world. Read Sleep and rest your way to a more confident, successful, and happier you.

Interesting with some new stuff though not backed by solid scientific researches
Surprised to find that many negative reviews with words so strong. IMHO, though it may not be ground breaking, it does provide some useful information I had not read in the five plus books of the same genre. Anyway, please check the images I posted and judge it yourself. Hope you find them helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gamechanger
Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2023

This book is a game changer for every insomniac. It is brutal in the first week or so, you’re like a zombie, but totally worth it. Really helps you understand what really is good quality sleep, and it’s a relief to let go of the idea that we must get the classic 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night (which is impossible for anyone with sleep issues).

4.0 out of 5 stars A straightforward approach to better sleep
Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2019
Verified Purchase
If you're looking for simple, straightforward advice for getting better sleep, this book is for you.
I don't agree with the critical review that this book is "shockingly empty". If you're looking for a book that provides a very technical look at sleep, there are other options. This book gives you specific strategies for better sleep that elite athletes use. Sure, an 8th grader might know that caffeine will give you energy, but plenty of adults misuse it and simple advice about using caffeine to your advantage (like a professional cyclist) could be a game changer. If you're struggling with sleep, pick up this book and put the principles into practice. While the author does sell a sleep kit and mentions it repeatedly, it's never presented as a "must-have" (rather as a way of having a consistent sleeping surface). Much of the valuable advice is in the first half of the book, but it's a relatively quick read that should help you look at sleep in a different light (pun intended).

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple & Powerful Formula For Better Sleep
Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2018

If you’re interested in sleeping better and taking your physical and mental performance to the next level, look no further.

Nick Littlehales has coached some of the best athletes on the planet on how they can use sleep as a tool to enhance their recovery and thus perform better than their peers.

In this book, he details the exact strategies you can use to sleep more efficiently and effectively so you can look, feel and perform at your best.

Forget about the 8 hours a night. Nick shares a new flexible way of sleeping that utilises ‘Controlled Recovery Times’ meaning you can actually sleep less at night, yet still perform more!

Thank you for this Nick 🙏🏽

It’s a MUST BUY book. Honestly, I think, this is the best book I’ve ever read. Nick’s program/approach is amazing in the world we are living. Everyone is busy, compromises sleep ... what for? To be sick eventually? Nick leads the way in changing that. We all want to be healthy and live a long life. Sleep and recovery is very important for that. SLEEP. Read this book and you will understand.
