After kindly being asked to contribute to the two-year anniversary celebrations for Crossfit Nickel City’s incarnation, I was delighted to be warmly welcomed by a group of enthusiastic amateur athletes.


The topic of the day was recovery and I presented a short introduction to the benefits of sleep in recovery, which included some tips on how much sleep an athlete should aim for, how to optimise your time in bed and how to address some common factors that negatively impact sleep quality.


I’m not an expert in sleep, however, my research in the area over the years has armed me with some great basic advice to improve this area of your life.  Thanks to Dr Cheri Mah for all her support and teaching in this area and I hope these nuggets of her wisdom, that I am passing along in this presentation benefit you all.


Happy birthday Crossfit Nickel City…
