Olympian Discusses The Importance of a Good Bed

Professional athletes don’t just train harder — they recover smarter. For Olympians, rest and recovery are treated with the same seriousness as workouts and diet. That’s because sleep isn’t just downtime — it’s when the body rebuilds, recharges, and reinforces the results of each day’s effort. So when one Olympian cited the bed as a key part of their performance routine, it made more sense than most realize.

Elite athletes often sleep on advanced sleep systems that offer targeted support, adjustability, and motion isolation — all of which are standard in Night Air® 6-Zone Smart Beds. These beds provide three adjustable zones on each side of the mattress, allowing precision control over shoulder, lumbar, and leg support. For those pushing their bodies to the limit, that level of control reduces strain on joints and promotes optimal circulation.

What makes Night Air® especially beneficial for active individuals is the ability to modify support in real time. Sore quads from leg day? Reduce firmness in the leg zone. Tight shoulders from training? Soften the upper zone while keeping your back aligned. This level of personalization helps accelerate muscle recovery by reducing tension and distributing weight more evenly.

Night Air®’s breathable, stretch-knit covers and edge-to-edge support further elevate comfort. No overheating. No sagging edges. Just full-body support that holds up through the toughest training cycles. And because the dual air systems are whisper quiet, you can make adjustments during the night without interrupting your sleep cycle.

You don’t need to be an Olympian to prioritize recovery. But sleeping on the same caliber of technology used by professionals can bring noticeable improvements to energy, soreness, and mental clarity — things we all need more of, regardless of what we’re training for.
