How much sleep do you need each night?

6 1/2 to 7 is my average, i will occassionally get 9 hours in continously.

tonite i am starting the vampire shift (midnite to 8 am), so gaud knows what my sleeping habits (if any) will be for the next two weeks.....

Well I'm pretty much already a vampire, work from 10PM-7AM. I usually sleep about 7 hours although some days as few as 4 and some days as many as 13.

I usually average about 7-9 over the course of most weeks though.

as much as possible 7-8 on work days and 10-12 on weekends

Who in the hell has time to get at least 12 hours a night?

7-8 hours for me

is not so much quantity but quality of sleep that matters, for athletes the deep delta wave sleep is critical, this is the one where you dont even dream which is more restorative for muscle repair,
where REM sleep when you dream restores your mind

8+ hours for me! Work on my feet all day and need at least 8 to get some good recovery time in.
