Did Andrew Huberman suggest that it is better to take a nap during the day than to sleep in if going to bed late, and that it's important to get up at the same time each day in the episode Sleep Toolkit: Tools for Optimizing Sleep & Sleep-Wake Timing | Huberman Lab Podcast #84 and the clip Sleep Consistency Tips?
I've been sleeping consistently for the past week, going to bed between 8:30 and 10 PM and waking up between 5:30 and 7 AM, aiming to get 7-9 hours of sleep. Normally, I sleep around 8:30/9:30 PM and wake up around 4/4:30/5 AM. Tonight, I have to stay up until 2 AM for a lab shift. What time should I wake up? Should I prioritize consistency in wake times and wake up at 5 AM to get back into a rhythm, or do I sleep in? What would Andrew Huberman tell me to do?
