If after a weekend night or after a busy week with little sleep the lost sleep to catch up by taking a good sleep will be disappointed. That does not help. An evening to go to bed late is not usually a problem. That may be overtaken by a little longer to sleep. But if you have a few days short of sleep, sleep deprivation piling up and no more sleep helps . The only thing that helps is still used to go to bed. Your body gets the lost sleep because no longer on by sleep but it by sleeping more deeply. The less you sleep, the less long periods of deep sleep because last. It is that deep sleep that provides the physical recovery. The deeper sleep, especially in the first half of the night before and normally lasts about 10 to 15% of the total sleep time. Too short, deep sleep eventually leads to chronic fatigue. Which is not resolved by the morning to sleep longer – by morning, the shorter periods of deep sleep. Better to go to bed earlier and more time for the ‘deep sleep’. Major changes in bedtimes, for example through the weekend off to sleep, also require a major adjustment of your biological clock . If you want to sleep, sleep no longer than 1.5 hours, the length of a sleep cycle. Moreover, we should not make up any lost hours. Research has shown that we are only one third of the ‘lost’ hours to catch up.
