5hrs of sleep daily
-
4 hours is slightly short but still ok .We all need at least 3 sleep cycles a day ,one cycle last about one and half hour in order to function satisfactory.In a Ranger course soldiers do get their 3 sleep cycles otherwise......they would be shooting each otherOriginally posted by snop_coolz:humm..i attended a course b4...the lecturer said..its not how long u sleep..its the sleep quality..if u sleep well and deep such that ur brains get the rest..even 4hr is enough..however..if u sleep with troubles..even 12 hrs later u will still feel tired..so its basically how well u sleep..ways to improve sleep can b that u listen to soft music b4 u sleep..then sleep in well conditioned temperature...most importantly is to make ur brain and body relax..this way..5 hrs of sleep is no problem..
oh ya..if u sleep less..drink more water..

dun risk it if you can lar. even if you think 5 hours is enough, in the long run it may have some bad effects. Sleep, everyone!
Didn't realize singaporeans all dun sleep. On the other hand, more than 10 hours sleep also not considered good for health. -
i guess different ppl require different amount of sleep. but recommended is 7hrs. I still rmbr during outfield, never sleep for 4 days complete. instead digging trench. was practically a walking zombie, can't think or work properly

hmm. it'll make you very tired in the day. it'll make you fall sick(flu, colds) easier also.Originally posted by freestyle:what are the effects on the body? serious replies please. Would really like to know if its possible to sleep 5hrs a day without causing any health hazards to the body. Thanks
i had 5 hrs of sleep daily when i was in school for 3 years.
won't you feel very tired if you never take any coffee/tea? i'll feel very drained if i don't take coffee/tea to perk myself up in the morning. i don't think it's very healthy because on the long run, you can get caffine-dependant.
which i think is not very healthy.

wat u work as?Originally posted by one-niner:how long you want to do this for ? I experienced it for like 4 mths ? kinda of draining on body and felt burned out by the end of 4 mths. it was work related.
i worked till ard 8pm,before heading off to the gym , then coming back home to work till ard 2-3 am, before waking up at 8 am again to go work.
the alternate days ( tues and thurs) were just straight till 2am.
However i had the saturdays and sundays off .so it kinda of balanced off for me i guess.
But i had colleagues who were doing this for like 6-7 mths straight it have a serious toll on their bodies,haggard faces, more tired and prone to be ill. -
