Can You Stockpile Sleep?

Can you stockpile sleep by staying in bed until noon on Saturday?  It can help in the short term says the Wall Street Journal but according to experts, short naps are more effective. If you don’t manage to put in a good eight hours during the week, sleeping in can actually help you catch up. And if you know you’ll be staying up late over the weekend, doing some preemptive snoozing can help you deal with the deficit. But even though it works, experts recommend creating a nap routine and sticking to it instead.
