Professional hockey player Mike Greenza was a first-round draft
pick out of Cornell University, full of youth, talent, and
unlimited potential. Midway through his second NHL season, that
potential is still unrealized. He and his team struggle, scraping
the bottom of their division. A chance comment by Greenza's little
sister, Britt, changes everything. Reacting to her brother's
moodiness and fatigue, she reminds him of former professor Dr. Jim
Maas, who had been an advisor to his Cornell team and a nationally
renowned sleep coach. Told as a fable and filled with
performance-enhancing scientific facts for athletes of every level
in all sports, Sleep to Win follows Greenza as the season unfolds.
He reconnects with Maas, author and world renowned sleep
researcher, who schools him in the latest sleep research as it
applies to athletes, including the exact amount of sleep athletes
need; how a specific sleep stage actually enhances what is
practiced; a way to heal (and prevent) injury with extra rest; and
the elements of the perfect pre-game nap. Soon, Mike is skating
better and scoring more, his teammates are jumping on the
sleep-to-win bandwagon, his coach is becoming a believer, and the
entire team is climbing out of the cellar and into the Stanley Cup
playoffs-a testament to the power of sleep.
