    A new study just released (the largest sample ever taken apparently), says that 6-7 is ideal, and your risk of dying early increases for 8 or more. Apparently even 5 is better than 8.

    There is only one answer to that question considering im training seven days a week at the moment.

    Q How much sleep do you get or how much do you need?
    A Not enough and always more...
    Up and down, forward and backward, left and right, its all the same. All of this is done with the mind, not externaly.

    Hey, after you say how much sleep you get (need), say what body type you are: ectomorph, mesomorph, or endomorph.

    I'm an ectomorph.

    I get about 4 hours during week, 9 on weekends if I'm lucky. Past couple of days I've been zombieish because I worked 11pm - 7am went straight to school from work and then went to kung fu. Ugh. Do any of you dream kung fu? One night I was practicing some drills before I went to sleep and in one of my dreams someone threw a haymaker at me, I did a spear and woke up suddenly because I had actually thrown a spear and it flung my covers off the bed.

    I sleep 8-12 hours a day since I'm a lazy unemployed *******. I'm an ectomorph. When I was in college, I got around 4 hours/day on busy weeks where I was swamped with tests, projects, and stuff.

    under 30 sleep 8 hours at least for best rejuvenation.

    over 30 and 6 hours is plenty.

    catnaps are ok but they are no substitute for a decent REM sleep.

    No REM = No rest.

    Get your sleep! you need it to live healthy.

    peace

    p.s, to much sleep and you are likely depressed or ill.
    Kung Fu is good for you.
