A year late but just wanted to say this has helped greatly especially for someone who has always struggled with sleep.

[EuropeaninChina]

Always knew through studies that it affected fat mass a lot, but never understood how exactly

[rijanmaharjan]

I have insomia. I sleep at 4 am then wake-up at 11 in my holidays.
In my college days, I sleep at 3 am then wake-up at 7 am
Then after my college, I take a nap between 2pm-5pm(3 hours)
I go to gym daily and do both strength training, cardio with calorie deficit.
Does this sleep schedule affect my fat loss journey?
Hoping for answer please.

I love your videos another great video as always can you please make a video on pyrament training

[Kevin]

Hate to be a stickler. But I think it’s “affect”. Love the content!

Why would you generally lose muscle mass? It seems more likely that sleep helps you grow more muscle, not lose less..

[rileyjackson]

Can you please make a video on myo reps

[willdavis]

2:11 that trend line is not so convincing.

[stluciestrength]

2 years late but I had questions. I work out very hard ( running, swimming, strength training) and eat pretty good ( fish, eggs, vegetables, oatmeal, fruit) however I have terrible sleep patterns. I work split shifts, 6:30 am -9:30 or 10:30 am and again 3:45 pm - 6-6:30 pm. I average about 4-5 hours sleep at night and try to get a nap between shifts ( before my swim/run). Strength training after work, dinner, turn in late. How important is sleep compared to working out and eating correctly, for athleticism and fat burning/muscle building? Thanks

What happens when you’re an insomniac balancing being awake for 42 hours and then sleeping for 13 hours? 😛

[pamrist]

Why did u say that obese people would likely not be watching your channel?

[Roby]

not me watching this losing fat with 0 sleep

It was a mistake to cite the relevance of your video to people who are already lean - that just makes those who are not stop watching. You deprive yourself of views, and fail to impart what may still be relevant knowledge to those seeking to lose weight. All sorts of knowledge can be transferrable and should be presented without favour - as a Youtuber, to do otherwise is strategically dumb!
