My first-time guest Joshua Bronfman is a Certified Sleep Science Coach and the founder of Dreamer. He has made getting better sleep his life’s mission.
Now, it’s pretty macho to make references to sleep being weak. For example, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead”. But then again, being exhausted and groggy isn’t very manly, either. And worst of all is blowing an opportunity with a great woman because you were either too cranky or not quick enough on your feet in the moment due to lack of restful sleep. Above and beyond those social aspects of sleep, going without it just flat-out isn’t healthy.
So where did the “macho” attitude toward lack of sleep come from? And given that men really do need sleep, how has our lifestyle (either consciously or unconsciously) wired us to actually lose sleep? How does our relationship with a woman suffer as a direct result of poor sleep habits?
Do younger men need more or less sleep than more mature guys? How are sleep and low-T levels directly related? Why is it that we as men happily deprive ourselves of sleep, but not of any other needs in life?
What exactly does sleep deprivation do to you physical attractiveness? How is circadian rhythm the linchpin to this whole conversation?
Why do some dudes feel like there should be, like 30 hours in a day, because we only feel like we need to sleep 8 out of every 30, not every 24? Finally, what is “junk sleep”, and how does it affect you?
