  14. Sleep and Muscle Development

  15. How sleep effects muscle growth Sleep is the most import part of the recovery cycle. Without sleep muscle growth will not occur. Sleep is important because HGH rises while you sleep.

  16. Why sleep is important for muscle growth Your body releases more HGH while sleeping than while awake. Along with releasing more HGH, sleep also plays a major role in protein synthesis. Without HGH releasing and protein synthesis occurring while sleeping, muscles will not be able to properly recover.

  17. How much sleep is enough Most people need 6 to 12 hours of sleep a day. The most important thing is that you feel rested for the next day. There have also been studies done that show you do not need an alarm clock to wake you up when you have had enough sleep.
