“Along with fitness and nutrition, getting enough quality sleep is essential for anyone looking to achieve optimal health. Sleep plays a crucial role in physical recovery and performance, allowing the body to repair and grow muscle tissue, especially after strength training,” Andrew explained. “Without adequate sleep, the body may not recover fully from workouts, leading to decreased performance and increased risk of injury.”
