How Much Sleep Do You Need and Get?

I read John Gruden's book "Do you Love Football" and he said he only needs 2-3 hrs a night. He has been to doctors and they said it is rare, but some people dont need sleep, so he looks at it as a blessing.


I need around 6, but rarely get it. I just dont sleep well. If I get more than 8, I am tired and sluggish all day. I will get plenty of sleep when I die.

I get 5.5-6 hours on the weekdays and usually 7-7.5 on the weekends. If I get too used to sleeping in I'll start going for 8-9 hours but I hate that so I try and get up early on the weekdays whenever possible. I will say however that I would feel 5X better getting 5 hours from 4-9 AM than 12-5 AM...there's something about waking up later in the morning...not sure what it is

As long as I get to crash for 12 hours in bed on Saturday or Sunday, waking up with the remote in hand and fresh coffee on the night stand at the crack of noon, 6 hours a night throughout the week is about it for me.
