Therefore, for them, Schwarzenegger suggests the following: ?If you typically stay up late, try to push your bedtime back by 15 minutes per week. We’re not talking about significant changes. Remember, the results were established by moving sleep back just two hours. And it’s possible that even one hour earlier would lead to benefits.?? This dreadful cycle can be prevented and lead to lesser cardiovascular risks by keeping smaller goals and being consistent every day. Since Arnold has gone through his ordeal of heart surgeries, he makes sure to give a cautionary tale to his followers.
