If there are 3 days out of the week that you\u2019ll only get 5 hours, then the other 4 days you need to get 8.5 hours of sleep to get to 49 hours of total sleep. Obviously, this is not ideal and can mess with your circadian rhythm a little bit, but it\u2019s better than gett less than the ideal amount of sleep.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n    \n  <\/div>\n<div>\n<p>          You can\u2019t make it up on the weekends<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>          Don\u2019t get very little sleep on the weekdays and then get 12 hours of sleep on Saturday and Sunday. Studies show that this is just about as bad as getting very little sleep. You can only make up for about 30-60 minutes of missed sleep each night, which is why you\u2019ll need more than the weekend to make it up.<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n    \n  <\/div>\n<div>\n<p>          If you want to burn fat, sleep is the key.
