(Medical-NewsWire.com, February 24, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- Researchers found out that getting more and better quality sleep could improve the athletic performances of those involved in sports. However, this aspect is often overlooked by those concerned. According to an article titled "Can Sleep Improve Your Athletic Performance" by R. Morgan Griffin, athletes need more sleep than regular people because their body need more time to recover from the intense training that they undergo.
ChiliPad heating and cooling mattress pad could help athletes achieve a more rejuvenating sleep that would allow them to repair tissues, clear their minds, and balance their hormones. A good sleep improves their accuracy, speed, and reaction time, which are important factors in sports competitions.
Regular people needs 7 to 9 hours of sleep, so athletes need more than that. Unfortunately, the stress brought about by the competition, and the jam-packed schedule that these players need to keep hinder achieving the aforementioned required hours of sleep. Some athletes find it difficult to sleep. To make matters worse, they are discouraged to take sleep medications because these might affect their athletic performance.
According to Jim Thornton, president of the National Athletic Trainers' Association, it would be better for athletes to practice deep-breathing and other natural ways to induce sleepiness. He also suggested taking day naps to compensate for the lack of sleep the night before.
For athletes that are too stressed to be sleepy, ChiliPad mattress pad could induce sleepiness by providing the ideal sleep temperature and white noise. This product is composed of a mattress pad, control unit (cube), and remote control. The cube heats or cools the water that would then flow through the soft in-bed coil inside the mattress pad. Depending on the setting of the cube, the mattress pad would heat or cool not only the mattress pad, but also the core body temperature of the sleeper.
In addition, the control unit produces 40-decibel soft white noise that is found to also induce sleepiness and improve one's quality of sleep. According to the results of one study participated by basketball players of Stanford University, "Players increased their speed by 5%. Their free throws were 9% more accurate. They had faster reflexes and felt happier. Other studies have shown similar benefits for football players and other athletes."
Midwest Health Solutions is an authorized seller of ChiliPad temperature-controlled mattress pad that could be purchased through Amazon.
