One complete sleep cycle is approximately 90 minutes and includes N1 light sleep (5-10 min), N2 deeper sleep (20-25 min), N3 deep slow-wave sleep (20-40 min), and REM sleep (10-20 min). Most adults need 4-6 complete cycles (6-9 hours total).
Grogginess occurs when you wake during deep sleep (N3) rather than at a cycle's end. Calculate cycles and set alarms at 90-minute intervals from when you expect to fall asleep. This tool adds a 14-minute sleep onset delay automatically.
Adults need 7-9 hours per night — that is 5-6 complete 90-minute cycles. Consistently sleeping under 6 hours is associated with increased cardiovascular and cognitive risks.
