Training: Recovery: Maximizing Sleep Recovery

Ways to Maximize Napping

1. Peak day sleepiness is reached at around 2-3 p.m.  This is a good time to take a nap.
2. If you know you will be up late, try to take a preemptive nap.
3. Nap length should be around 10-30 minutes.
4. Long naps (90 minutes) can be used sparingly, but can affect sleep later in the evening.
5. Make your environment conducive for napping.
