America’s BIGGEST Problem

Personally I think diet is the average American’s biggest problem, but this TEDx talk by Dr. Kirk Parsley, who in addition to being a doctor is a former Navy SEAL, brings up a valid and rather unthought of concern – our sleep deficit and more importantly it’s significant  toll on our health.  As a community of endurance athletes we can immensely improve our health just by getting past the cultural thinking that we aren’t tough or are not putting in enough effort in each day if we actually sleep eight hours each night.
