The Bert Show. Does anybody really get eight hours asleep? It always ticks me off when I'm reading things that say, you really need eight hours of sleep, right? I don't know anybody. I don't know anybody that gets eight hours asleep. Some of us get five and a half. Some of us get six, but there's no one that gets eight. Jackson is struggling with this right now. Big time. Yeah. You know, at the start of this year, I kind of started on a bit of a

health and fitness journey, and I've been really proud of myself. I've been being really consistent

and working out five days a week. I've been tracking what I've been eating a little bit better.

How's the marathon training go? Marathon training's going, well, half marathon. Half marathon. And I actually signed up for a 10-mileer that's happening in a few months.

Like I've been just doing what I feel like are all the right steps up into this point.

But part of, you know, your recovery and all this stuff and people don't as being so important is your sleep, right?

And so I have a fitness tracker that's conveniently a ring that I wear every day,

and it stays charged for a few days, and I wear it when I go to sleep.

And the biggest reason why I've been wearing this has been to track my sleep

to see what I'm really getting at night.

Because sometimes you're in bed for a certain amount of time,

but that's not necessarily the amount that you're actually sleeping, right? And let me tell you,

the results have been absolutely shocking over the last like two months that I've been wearing this.

So let me just read what the last like, you know, a little bit of sleep that I've been getting.

Four hours and four minutes, five hours and five minutes, four hours 18, four hours 50, five hours seven,

five twenty three hours seven, five hours seven, four thirty 18, four hours 50, five hours seven, five 23, four 29, five 26,

three hours seven, five hours flat, four 34, four eleven. So you just can't fall asleep, so you will

lay in bed and is your, what they're calling like sleep hygiene. Is that good? A lot of that, so it's two

things. One is how long it takes me to get to sleep. Some nights, I'm really tired and I'm able to fall asleep pretty early.

But sometimes I do have this weird like sleep delay where it takes me like two hours for me to fall asleep.

And then on the nights, even on the nights where it takes me a while or I can fall asleep early, I'm waking a lot up a lot in the middle of the night, like, you know, two, three times,

and it's taking me a while to fall back asleep in those times, too.
