Athletes who sleep well, perform well? 

Olympic champions and top athletes know that a good night’s sleep can make the difference from being on the top of the podium or struggling at the back of the pack. Restful sleep helps the body recover from the physical strains of training or a competition, and it is only during deep sleep that we produce the hormone needed to initiate tissue repair. 

As Julie Derron, Swiss triathlete and olympic silver medalist Paris 2024, says "Sleep is central to my mental and physical recovery. After a good night's sleep, I feel much happier and more productive. Thanks to the Dagsmejan clothing, I don't have to worry about my pyjamas and it helps me to sleep comfortably and thus optimize my nightly recovery."

Studies have shown that athletes who sleep well tend to be faster, more accurate, and react more quickly than those who struggle to get enough sleep or rest well enough. Well-rested athletes will also lower their risk of suffering injuries during sports. After a long day of training or the physical and mental challenges of a competition, professional athletes will also need more sleep to recover properly – at least an hour more per night is what’s recommended.

WHY TOP ATHLETES CHOOSE DAGSMEJAN AS THEIR RECOVERY PARTNER 

There are many factors that impact how well we sleep. One fast way to improve on your sleep is to wear the right recovery sleepwear. That's why professional athletes and top sports teams across the world wear Dagsmejan. Fabian Cancellara, founder Tutor Pro Racing Team & Swiss cycling legend, explains: "It is no news that sleep quality and athletes’ performance are closely linked, so it is a real priority for us. With Dagsmejan recovery sleepwear and accessories, riders are offered optimized sleep quality and increased muscle recovery. A real opportunity for us.” 

The Swiss national ice hockey team also wear Dagsmejan in critical tournaments like now for the Eurotour in December. Patrick Fischer, Head Coach, believes that Dagsmejan plays an important role in the recovery process of the players: "In the final phase of a world championship, the best team is the one that recovered best. That's why we are working with Dagsmejan, which produces a new type of functional sleepwear that is optimally adapted to our physiological sleep needs. This enables my players to have the best rest they can get and to deliver the best performance when it matters." 

HOW DAGSMEJAN’S PERFORMANCE SLEEPWEAR BOOST RECOVERY 

Dagsmejan’s NATTRECOVER™ fabric is made with breathable eucalyptus fibres, combined with heat activated energizing minerals. This helps the body to recover in the optimal way by keeping the best temperature for sleep and improve oxygenation of the musles.      

The responsive minerals used in NATTRECOVER™ recycle excess body heat which is released naturally during sleep—transforming it into far infrared energy and re-directing it back towards the body. This can promote increased blood flow to muscles, enhancing the recovery and rejuvenation process.

When we have been physically active our muscles are put under pressure, this can lead to micro-inflammations. As a natural response to this damage, growth hormones are released to repair and replace these damaged cells. NATTRECOVER™ technology can aid the recovery process by increasing the amount of oxygen reaching our muscle tissue.
