For most people, particularly the ones who need to travel every now and then, changes in time zone will force them to adjust accordingly and this includes the matter of sleeping hours. Some may have an adjustment of 12 hours advance depending entirely on the time zone that the region that is visited is categorized in.
When you get back to reality, you have to once again adjust. So what are you to do? Well for some people, sleep patterns can do the trick. Regulating the appropriate sleeping hours will always be an issue but for people like Ryan Hoffman, anyone can really try anything that will help minimize the sleep issues that usually befall travelers today.
Hoffman, 24, said yesterday he had been staying awake until the early hours of the morning, and then sleeping in until late morning, since the Storm’s first trial match against Manly on Friday.
Storm’s 21-man squad for its World Club Challenge bout against English Super League champions Leeds Rhinos, on March 1, left Melbourne late last night.
Players have been told not to sleep until after a brief stopover in Hong Kong in order to get their body clocks used to the different time zone. But Hoffman wanted a head start.
“They gave us (advice) to try and sleep later,” he said.
“I’ve been going to sleep as late as I can and sleeping in. Hopefully it works.”
