Not getting enough sleep at night bad pattern?

[ReXXiLLe]

Hey guys!

I am 15 year old male 2 weeks ago I started dieting and working out again, I do the Intermittent Fasting approach from lean gains, I do weight lifting 3 times a week and HIIT cardio 2 times a week.

Results are showing up. How ever a few weeks ago I met a girl I like and we constantly chat at night, I get about 6-7 sometimes 8 hours of sleep but mostly 6-7 I know this is not enough and I usually get more sleep after school like 3-4 hours.

I am about 176cms tall and I am worried this might affect my height in the future I want to be 180, I do sleep more in the weekends I sleep from like 2pm till 12 am so I get enough sleep. So what do you guys think? is this going to affect me a lot? any tips and help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

since your lifting you should probably but some protein pouders because your muscle are going to take all the protein you have to reapir them self causing you to lack the protein you need for growth the amount of sleep you get is decent but for someone who weight train at your age it should be more i weight train 6 days a week different body section everyday. 7-9 hours of sleep on school day and weekend i pretty much sleep the whole day

Thanks for your answer!

I am quite familiar with nutrition and weight lifting. What you say is not really true, you don't need protein powders for muscle growth..you can still gain muscle by eating.

of course you can gain by eating im just saying your body is usng most of proteins on muscle growth than anything else

your body can handle living on 6-7 hours of sleep at your age. this shouldn't affect you later on. if your parents are tall then you will be tall a lot of this is based on genetics.
