Matt Crawley, PhD, was featured by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) for his presentation “Sleep in Elite Athletes.” Matt, currently an assistant strength and conditioning coach and sport scientist with the NHL’s Dallas Stars, presented this work at the 2022 NSCA’s Coaches Conference and is now offered as a free lecture by the NSCA. In this work, Matt discusses the importance of sleep in athletes, examines some high performance case studies involving sleep tracking, and provides sleep health resources for strength and conditioning coaches.
