It's inconsistent.

I'm in different time zones.

I don't see my kids.

It's that whole thing that goes, whew.

Allostatic load just gets through the roof and there's no payback.

That's the people we've seen more in the non-functional overreaching.

And then they wonder why they're plateaued.

Okay, I'm laughing here because that makes intuitive sense, right?

And we have a number, we work with, I have a company, Absolute Rest, and we have the most famous, you would know the name, sleep scientists in the world, right?

The most published ones.

I've asked that question so many times.

Nobody has a direct answer.

It makes sense, right?

I burn more calories today, I should sleep more.

There's no compelling scientific evidence to suggest that caloric expenditure is directly tied to minutes of sleep needed.

That said...

Like Jeffrey Germer has been doing this for 30 years.

He's like, there is like, he just, he's saying, I'm telling you clinically that happens.

So I'm like very much laughing when you say that, because I'm like, man, I know what the science says on that, but my experience is different.

And Jeff is like, no, the higher output sports need more sleep.
