For example, I feel tired at work when I am not well rested. Others, however, seem to get by on less rest.
If I work 84 hours a week, on average with 4 hours of sleep between each shift. On my single day off I sleep for 12 hours to "catch up". All 8 days though I am tired and my work performance is less than great.
Others however seem to do just fine with the same schedule.
Our eating habits are the same or near similar.

Yes some people do need less sleep than others.
However you are fooling yourself if you think you can "Bank" or "catch up" you extra hours of sleep on your days off.
When your body is tired it shows in your appearance, and your performance.

People require different amounts of sleep to feel rested. Your sleep needs to be regular rather than you trying to "catch up" on your day off. Your body doesnt benefit from longer sleep one day a week.

Yes. its best to have a regular sleep pattern, there is no such thing as catch up sleep, it only confuses your body.
