In the article link, it talks about the importance sleep has on athletic performance. One thing that students always do is take naps. The article says that naps can be very beneficial for student athletes who may not be getting sleep at night, and then are having to wake up super early for competition. The articles says that a 20 minute nap is about all it takes, it says nothing about a 2 hour nap that most people take, when they find time. If you are a student athlete who takes 2 hour naps daily and then wonder why you can’t sleep at night, this may be your problem. The article also talks about the importance of enough sleep, and not too much during a nights sleep. On average, a healthy amount of sleep is about 7 hours on the weekdays and 7.4 hrs on the weekends.
