How to sleep like an Olympic athlete (should)

To sleep like Olympic champions, follow these expert tips: Aim for 8-9 hours of quality sleep nightly and stick to a consistent schedule.

Create a sleep-friendly environment—dark, cool, and quiet.

Establish a relaxing pre-sleep routine and limit screen time to an hour before bed.

Avoid intense exercise close to bedtime and steer clear of meals 2 hours before sleeping.

Consider short naps to compensate for lost sleep.
