About this routine

Polish striker Robert Lewandowski is known for his relentless focus on physical longevity. Working with sleep coach Nick Littlehales, he developed a nighttime structure built around biomechanical recovery. A key pillar of the Robert Lewandowski sleep routine is sleeping on his left side, a deliberate choice meant to take pressure off his dominant right kicking leg during rest.

Before turning off the lights, Lewandowski controls his environment to maximize sleep quality. He cuts out artificial blue light using specialized glasses, drops his bedroom temperature to a cool eighteen degrees Celsius, and ensures complete darkness with blackout shades.

Once in bed, he settles onto his left side and focuses on slow nasal breathing to calm his central nervous system. This consistent wind down helps maintain top athletic output season after season.
