Light for Athletes®

Improving the circadian rhythm increases well-being and performance. We explain how to improve the circadian rhythm.

• Plenty of natural light during the day: Spending time outdoors during the day can help regulate circadian rhythms and improve performance. You should spend at least 30 minutes outdoors each day enjoying natural light.

• Use daylight technology indoors: Light for Athletes® newly developed lighting technology acts like natural daylight on the photoreceptors in the eye. The revolutionary LED lights allow you to tailor individual light curves to your needs. Light for Athletes® lighting technology automatically adjusts intensity and light color to match daylight and therefore people's needs.

• Avoid blue light in the evening: People should avoid exposure to blue light in the evening, as it can disrupt sleep-wake rhythms and lead to fatigue and poor performance the next day. This means electronic devices such as phones, tablets and laptops should be avoided in the hours before bedtime. Light for Athletes® lighting technology automatically changes the light spectrum to the optimal light composition and intensity in the evening, improving circadian rhythms.

• Regular sleep-wake cycle: Try to go to bed and get up at the same time each day to promote the body's natural rhythm.Regular physical activity: regular physical activity can help improve circadian rhythms by naturally stimulating the body and improving sleep quality.

• Regular meals: Eat regularly at the same times to get your body used to eating and digesting rhythms.

Light exposure has a significant impact on circadian rhythms. People can use light to their advantage by carefully timing their light exposure to improve their circadian rhythm. With these changes, people can improve their circadian rhythm and optimize their performance..

The circadian rhythm is the body's natural clock that regulates various physiological processes such as the sleep-wake rhythm, hormone secretion and metabolism.

The circadian rhythm and performance are directly related. When the circadian rhythm is disrupted, it can lead to fatigue, impaired cognitive function and poor athletic performance.

Research with athletes has shown that the timing of training sessions and competitions can have a significant impact on athletic performance. Athletes who train and compete at the same time each day tend to perform better than those who have an irregular schedule.

This is because a regular schedule helps synchronize circadian rhythms, which can lead to better physical performance, faster reaction times, and better cognitive function.

Improving the circadian rhythm has a significant impact on sleep quality at night and performance during the day.

One of the most important factors that can disrupt the circadian rhythm is light exposure.

Light has a direct effect on the body's internal clock, and exposure to light at the wrong time can disrupt the sleep-wake rhythm, leading to fatigue and poor athletic performance. The human body is most sensitive to light in the blue spectrum, so exposure to blue light can have a significant impact on circadian rhythms.

Blue light suppresses the production of the hormone melatonin, which is responsible for regulating the sleep-wake cycle. This means that exposure to blue light in the evening can delay sleep, leading to fatigue and poor athletic performance the next day.

On the other hand, bright light in the morning can help improve circadian rhythms and enhance performance. Bright light in the morning can suppress melatonin production and promote the production of cortisol, which is responsible for regulating the body's metabolism and energy levels. This can lead to improved cognitive function and physical performance throughout the day.

The circadian rhythm is regulated by a number of factors, one of which is light exposure. Light has a profound effect on circadian rhythms and influences a person's performance and well-being. Improve your circadian rhythm easily and quickly with the right light at the right time.
