Popis: Sleep is essential for recovery and performance capacity in elite athletes. Still, elite athletes appear to sleep worse compared to gender and aged matched non-exercising controls (Leeder, Glaister, Pizzoferro, Dawson, & Pedlar, 2012). This project aims to investigate the potentially beneficial effect of a carefully timed combination of light exposure (morning) and blue-light blocking (evening) on sleep quantity and sleep quality in a field study among elite athletes.
