can an extra two hours of sleep really make a diffrence

So im sleeping roughly 12-6 and tired as hell when working out, you think if i went to bed at 10 and woke up at 6 itd make that big a diffrence?

Yes.

Are you going to bed at 12? You may be getting a lot less sleep than 6 hours. I always have to give myself a little time.I like to go to bed at 10 knowing that I will be asleep within 1 hour, and than waking up at 6:30.

yes in overall awareness and even the little things you might not notice, trust me i questioned the same...sleep is like a free drug with only positive effects unless you sleep in and are late for somethin

Here's what an extra 2 hours can do for you -

Yes, of course. But just like other aspects of fitness such as training volume and nutrition, a perfect balance must be achieved. Too much sleep wreaks havoc on your energy too. I personally perform best on 8.5 hours. Experiment for a while, and see how more sleep affects you.

I usually go to bed 11, get up 8 so strong 9 hours of sleep...
Anyways, lately because of school I had to get up at 6 so i decided to change my schedule around, go to bed at 10, get up at 6.
Actually feels pretty good man, I think it's true what they say, 1 hr of sleep before midnight counts as 2 after midnight

bump :)

great replys everybody, thank you very much
