Sleep patterns.

Does anyone have any idea's of the importance of say, sleeping 8 hours, but doing it from 3-11 am instead of 10-6?

The sleep cycle will be deeper and more revitalizing to your body if it is done on a regular schedule. Basically, your body would be prepared to go to sleep at a certain time each night, and wake up at a time each morning.


I'm guilty of a shitty sleep cycle though

10-6 is preferred. Your body is built to sleep at night and in darkness. The rule of thumb is therefore 'sleep when it's dark outside'.

My cycle is all fucked up too though.

Witch has pretty much got that covered. Getting ample exposure to the sunlight and darkness at the appropriate times is pivotal to staying on a good sleep schedule. These two variables have a large impact on the hormones that regulate sleep and waking.

10-6 is normal schedule but if you continue your sleep schedule at some other time for a log time then body gets habituated to that schedule. And necessary changes also take place in the body to accomodate such a different schedule.
