In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how sleeping more can help you lose weight.Studies have been showing that people gain weight when they don’t sleep enough. This seems to be for a couple of reasons – 1-when you’re sleeping you’re not eating 2-some hormones are activated when you’re not sleeping enough that increase your appetite and decrease your body’s ability to feel full when you do eat. So shoot for 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explains how to fall asleep faster. Whatever you don’t count sheep – a recent study has shown that counting sheep or anything else engages your mind too much and actually delays your ability to fall asleep fast. It’s better to think of pleasant, relaxing thoughts as you drift off to sleep. Also I have found that on days that I exercise I fall asleep faster and sleep through the night better. What about you?

Can You Catch Up On Your Sleep This Weekend?

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain that you can’t really catch up on your sleep. Sadly their is no real way to make up for lost sleep by sleeping later on the weekends. A couple of days of sleeping late doesn’t even you out for the week of living on just a few hours of sleep. A better sleep strategy is if you know you are going to sleep less on Friday then try and sleep late on Thursday and Saturday to even it out that way. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
