According to history, Leonardo Da Vinci was one of those people who did not appreciate the habit of rest that comes from sleep. He was adept at the polyphasic sleep cycle, a practice that consists of distributing sleeping hours into multiple, shorter episodes. Because of this, he opted to change his sleep nights for short 30-minute naps every 4 or 6 hours.
In an interview given in 2007, the singer stated that she slept about 15 hours a day. This served as a form of alternative treatment so that she could sing however she wanted.

The record holder of Olympic medals believes that part of his incredible success comes from his excellent sleeping habits. Its most unusual habit is that the swimmer sleeps in a hyperbaric chamber that simulates an altitude of 9,000 feet.
According to experts, the reason for this is so that the swimmer can train in high places, where the amount of oxygen is lower. This promotes an increase in the production of hemoglobin, responsible for transporting oxygen, improving the performance of athletes by improving the body's resistance.
