Watson et al (2015) Recommended Amount of Sleep for a Healthy Adult: A Joint Consensus Statement of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research Society
Adults should sleep 7 or more hours per night on a regular basis to promote optimal health:
- Sleeping less than 7 hours per night on a regular basis is associated with adverse health outcomes, including weight gain and obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and stroke, depression, and increased risk of death. Sleeping less than 7 hours per night is also associated with impaired immune function, increased pain, impaired performance, increased errors, and greater risk of accidents.
- Sleeping more than 9 hours per night on a regular basis may be appropriate for young adults, individuals recovering from sleep debt, and individuals with illnesses. For others, it is uncertain whether sleeping more than 9 hours per night is associated with health risk.
- People concerned they are sleeping too little or too much should consult their healthcare provider.

Ep 35 | 5 Steps to Fix Your Broken Fitness Routine | BehaviorFit Radio
When I work with clients, I use a process called "shaping" to establish new fitness routines or repair old ones. Shaping requires my clients/athletes to GRADUALLY work towards an "ideal" or targeted fitness routine that he or she can maintain over the long haul.
I document this process with extensive data collection, feedback, and regular coaching meetings to build any fitness routine.

How to Self-Monitor COVID-19 Symptoms and Social Distancing
.....
Tracking symptoms is incredibly important. If we all self-monitor a little bit, then maybe we can stay ahead of (and flatten) curve, and save a life or two.
....
Because self-quarantine is recommended to be two-weeks, I created a symptom tracker and show you how to track all symptoms* over a 2-week period
.....
***Note: all symptoms come from an infographic created by the University of Alabama at Birmingham Medical school***
.....
Check out the YouTube video for a walkthrough
STEPS:
1️⃣Go to blog www.behaviorfit.com/blog
2️⃣Read blog and watch YouTube tutorial
3️⃣Download Excel or PDF version
4️⃣Check symptoms daily
5️⃣Follow the experts and local government rules

Ep 29 | Master Decision-Making: Master Your Fitness
In this podcast, I review why decision-making is a key ingredient to any training session.
.....
Should always ask these questions:
- Is exercise and fitness a lifestyle change or just a phase?
- Am I sticking to a long- or short-term plan?
- If I see data related to my performance, am I willing to change my behavior?
.....
There are elements to consider:
1. Every level of analysis can look at any fitness decision
2. Every fitness decision is influenced by its own set of environmental variables
3. We need to assess how satisfied we are with every single fitness decision

Ep 26 | People are NOT Vain, Unmotivated, or Lazy | BehaviorFit Radio
Labels only take us so far when it comes to understanding our fitness behavior or lack thereof

The patterns of our fitness behaviors, or lack of meaningful environmental outcomes teach us more about our health and fitness.

Ep 24 | 3 Ways To Break Down Your Lifting Data
New @BehaviorFit PODCAST
-----
3 Ways To Break Down Your Lifting Data
-----
The 🔑 is to move from general data to specific data.
---
The more specific your data the better you can figure out where you need to improve the most.
---
I cover these three questions:
1️⃣Did I even lift?
2️⃣What was I supposed to lift?
3️⃣What did a really lift?
.
These three questions are important because they allow us to track compliance, behavior and deliver specific feedback on our performance.

Ep 8 | Q&A #1 - Fitness Careers, Functional Medicine, Plateaus, and Eating Habits
I scratch the surface on questions related to starting an ABA career in health and fitness, how we should interact with functional medicine doctors, plateaus toward progress, and how to shape healthy eating habits.
If you have a question that you want to be answered or discussed on future episodes, please leave a comment or send a message to nick@behaviorfit.com.
A special shout out to Paulie Gloves, Ryan O'Donnell, Tanya Wareck, and Dr. Matthew Normand for joining me on the health panel at HABA 2018.
