Lack of sleep can nearly double the risk of injury

Wondering if that can increase risk of injury? Well a recent study from 2014 sheds some light on this among adolescent athletes.A nice graphic showing that athletes who sleep less than 8 hours a night have 1.7 times as much risk of injury compared to those who sleep 8 or more hours.
