TL;DR
Sufficient sleep is a foundational, drug‑free performance enhancer: extending sleep by ~1.5 hours/night for 5–7 weeks produced a 9% improvement in free throws/three‑pointers, 12% faster reaction time, and 4% faster sprint time in collegiate basketball players.
Key insights
- A 15‑minute difference in nightly sleep can separate an A student from a B student; an 11‑minute difference separates a B from a C student (high‑school study).
- West Coast teams playing East Coast teams in night games (4–8 pm body‑clock window) have a 68% edge against the Las Vegas point spread over 25 seasons because the East Coast team feels 3 hours later.
- Nappuccino (caffeinated beverage followed immediately by a 20–30 minute nap) is more effective for alertness than caffeine or a nap alone.
