Sir Pete, yes there is a connection. I've been on graveyard shift for how many years na rin. Lack of sleep or no sleep at all would either cause you to be low-blood or high-blood but in most cases (usually call center peeps), be high-blood or hypertensive like me, pareho rin ata yun hehe.
I've been used to having no sleep at all and then going to the gym after my shift and I've noticed that I tired easily when warming up on the treadmill, my heartrate goes higher so I tend to do short runs only as a warm up but I don't notice the change when lifting weights (seems the same when I have sleep or not) mas malakas pa nga bumuhat pag walang tulog haha mamaw mode, though I don't recommend it.
During rides naman, I got used to having less sleep or no sleep at all though I wouldn't recommend it nor would I would like to continue it for so long since its not healthy. When we went to Mt. Samat I actually had no sleep at all hehe and same goes for sir Chits hehehe. Pati TOF ko nun walang sleep din. (pasaway noh)
My suggestion lan is, if you have no sleep at all or lack rest, avoid steep climbs but instead go on flats by on long runs naman para bawi. Or if you still want steep climbs make sure you have an ample amount of rest afterwards.

Sleep deprivation is a common condition that afflicts adults. Symptoms can interfere with memory, energy levels, mental abilities, and emotional mood. A study conducted by the University of Chicago Medical Center in 1999 indicates that the condition drastically affects the body's ability to metabolize glucose, leading to symptoms that mimic early-stage diabetes.
The brain's frontal cortex relies on sleep to function effectively. Insufficient rest adversely affects the frontal cortex's ability to control speech, access memory, and solve problems. The effect on physical energy is also startling: otherwise healthy people quickly show symptoms of age and early diabetes as glucose metabolism falls by up to forty percent. These physical reactions disappear when the test subject is allowed to rest properly. Driving and other activities can become dangerous without sufficient rest
Insomnia makes it difficult to focus the eyes properly, or to perform fine motor functions as effectively as when well rested. Muscle strength and endurance drops, in part due to lowered glucose metabolism. Appetite tends to increase with insufficient rest, leading to weight gain for some people.

When we lack sleep, wouldn't we be abusing the body by subjecting it to physical and mental exertion?
Don't you think it is always healthier to sleep first and do the exercise later?

hmm..i only get 6 or less hours of sleep everyday...lack of sleep in this case siguro refers to quality...i know for a fact that some people can spend 12 hours in bed yet still feel like shitee. this is my personal rule of thump...i don't count the hours..pag gising ko and i feel good..then i'm good..bike na agad ...when i wake up and i feel like i've been runover by a train..then i blame what happened last night and my beautiful wife and just stay in bed. hehehe i think new studies suggest the same...one star athlete in the us even said that "sleep is the cousin of death"

Basta may quality... Lito knows this of course. Living proof eh.

Sometimes my heart feels like bursting when forcing myself to wake up after a few hours sleep. Personally, I believe there's a very strong connection. Also, IMHO, when sleeping late, as in past midnight, it also affects the body, no matter how long the sleep. It's like, if I sleep at 2a.m., even if I wake up past 11a.m. I'm still tired. Not recharged at all. Sometimes I even get a headache. So the moral of the story is, get enough sleep, and sleep on time!

One of the Chronobiologic rhythms is circadian rhythms, which is defined as biological rhythms associated with the 24-hour cycle of the earth¡¯s rotation. These rhythms influence body functions such as blood pressure, body temperature, hormone levels, heart rate and pain threshold.
Sleep Time
Sleep and wake time are the circadian rhythms that are most important to athletes of any sport. This is also a factor that is controllable to some extent. Your sleep pattern determines your chronotype, which is a term coined to describe your body rhythm type.
If you like to get up early and go to be early, you are classified as an ¡°early-bird¡± A ¡°night-owl¡± is a person that likes to stay up late and rise late. ¡°Neutral types¡± are those who fluctuate between the two or have no preference.
Early-birds feel their best in the morning. They have more energy, higher levels of concentration and alertness, and generally perform better in the morning hours. They become lethargic and lose focus in the late afternoon.
Night owls have the opposite characteristics. They generally are on top of their game in the late afternoon. Their energy levels are rather low in the morning.
A neutral type can swing either way, but still follows a pattern. If they are feeling good one morning, they will have a decrease in energy in the afternoon. If they feel fatigued in the morning, they will probably be on the upswing in the afternoon.
