Why I'm never sleeping on a bed again and moved to the floor instead… 

For everyone who thinks this may be a reupload to one of my previous videos. It isn’t 😂 This is more so a 30 day reflection of sleeping on the floor and the new benefits I’ve seen. I’m only talking about this topic so much because it’s literally changed my life and it’s nothing hard. And I hope it can do the same for you ❤️ Replying to comments later tonight 🤞

This video popped up while I was busy with chores. I'm totally not your target demographic. I'm a senior female from Nowhere, Midwest U.S. Like many widows, I needed to move to more affordable lodgings and left the too heavy to move bed behind. I slept on the floor for a bit, and decided I liked it. Two years in, still on the floor. My back thanks me. (and I practice getting up off the floor daily, a skill to be honored at my age 😂) And - lest you confuse me for being bad ass, I spray peppermint essential oil around the sleeping area to keep spiders at bay. It works!

Tried sleeping on the floor a couple times after seeing this and you are so right about how easy it is to get up. Alarm went off and I jumped out of bed way easier than usual, great video man

Ive slept on the floor over a month now, Im with you on this, life-changing. my room feels more spacious as well, it's lovely!

For each like i’ll sleep on the floor for 1 days

Jak finds a way to make odd stuff look cool 😂😂

I did this about two years ago. I ended up getting rid of my bed all together. I recently brought a futon in my room but sleeping on the floor changed my life for the better

bro you are genuinely inspiring

This is from the bottom of my heart, Jake, thank you. Before I say your video I was battling a personal and embarrassing habit, but after seeing one of your videos I started improving on it, so seriously man, thank you.

I started doing this as well. Wool blanket doubled over to keep me away from cold ground. Also started sitting on floor with a floor desk when on computer. Amazing as well. The floor is where it's at boys. Your physical health will improve immensely.

Yo man, u helped me so much on my way to getting the best version of my self.

i made this my February challenge, starting to settle in. still waking up here and there though the night but i think by next week i’ll be good. flexibility and energy are noticeably higher in the morning.

I've literally decluttered and decorated my neglected and unloved home. Threw everything to recycling centre or charity centres. No TV, sofa, bed. The past 2wks I've been sleeping on my mattress on the floor. I did book 2nts in a hotel and tbh I didn't get the rest or comfort I thought I'd have 🤔 I was just about to spend a few hundred quid on a new bed frame... But... After watching your video I'm inspired by your decision too as well as the fab community here. 55yrs old lady, in need of changing my life, loosing weight and cheering up.. Thank you sweetie, new subscriber from England. Julie 🎉💐

I will study for 10 minutes for every like this comment gets.

Got this video recommended today after my grandpa passed away, keep moving forward in life guys

I may be one of your biggest fans. You are a hero to our generation, and especially to me. Keep changing lives like you do!😊

I have been sleeping on the floor for 8 days and i don't see that much of a difference because my bed it almost as hard as the floor. but for those that would see the benefits of it, enjoy the energy and use it wisely. awesome video Jak. much love ❤❤.

I've been WAITING for this because I started a couple nights after you, and wanted to see what your reflections were and if my own were valid or reciprocated 🤟 thanks man

Love that more people are finding out about this! Been sleeping on the floor for a while and its improved my posture and energy levels. Though jumping into it can be quite difficult as most people aren't used to positioning their body in a way that's suitable for harder surfaces, particularly those who are not back sleepers. Initially you may feel pain in your knees, etc from bad positioning of your body, though over time you naturally learn where to place pressure. Would recommend first starting out with something softer, maybe a yoga mat with a quilt and a couple blankets on top. Now i just use a yoga mat with a thin blanket on top.

Hey Jak i did this for about a week , for me personally i did feel the easier mobility but my brain was always tired in the morning and throughout the day. My posture was better yes, but i always felt like I had brain fog. This is just my observation, I think everyone one has it different, but I just wanted you and everyone else to know about this. Always love your videos Jak.

i feel like a possible solution is getting a harder mattress so you could sleep in the bed but have more back support

I also have a very soft bed, now complete with a mattress dip, so buying a new mattress has been a plan for a couple of months now. I saw this video and decided to try this experiment first - if I see benefits, then I will buy me a very hard mattress next. Currently on day 3, I don't really see the benefits you talk about yet. It was still hard for me to get up in the morning, and had pretty much the same limited flexibility in my limbs that I usually have in the mornings. But I'll keep on doing it for a week at least!

Hello bro thank you for giving good advice to the young generation

You Jak Piggott do entertain me quite a lot and I would love supporting you on whatever you do. Keep it up mate 🙂👍🏻

Yo Jak bro your videos are so fun to watch like this one.

Anyway brother I’ll go to bed now and yh thx for your videos brother and never stop uploading and never give up we need you and we all love you especially me mate 👊🏾❤️😊🇦🇺

This wakes me everytime ❤

I’m actually so used to sleeping on the floor 0:15

Some beds are very bouncy and comfortable but those cause back pain, while the beds with just wood on top and then a cloth above it is better and also less back pain. -according to my experience Edit:btw your video helped me alot, especially at the end where you talked about being used to not comfortable situations making you work better on uncomfortable situations

A push-up for each like on this comment

I might try this im having alot of tightness and stuff and its in my back and muscles and thank you for everything you have done because of you i have stopped scrolling on shorts and i have removed them completely because i wa getting addicted and you saying i would spend 20 yrs of my life scrolling really woke me up. Keep up your work and keep helping others ❤

I’ve had terrible posture for years since using a device, playing video games, eating food ect. hunching over (hunchback position) I’ve been for a back scan just a few years ago. It was revealed that I have low grade kyphosis (curvature of the spine) but it’s not severe. I’ve been sleeping with a few pillows propped up which I just recently found out does no good for your neck or back. I actually saw your thumbnail and title for this video a few days ago but had no interest in checking it out and just now it clicked that maybe I should come back to this video as it was still fresh in my mind. I’m so glad to come back to this to try out sleeping on the floor. I believe sleeping on the floor will improve a lot of the daily issues I’ve been facing. Especially comfortability in the morning not wanting to get up ect. I’ve always struggled with bad headaches towards the end of the night and wasn’t sure exactly what was triggering it and even after hours of sleep I still seem to be tired. Phone use has sky rocketed since being in a bed where I’m most comfortable. I find I slouch over and turn my phone sideways which in turn would be making my back and neck posture worse. I feel that being on the floor I won’t get the urges to lay down and watch countless videos until I pass out. I need to get into the habit of reading which I’ve struggled to do because of comfortability and lack of self discipline. Although reading isn’t my favourite thing to do I know it will improve my literacy skills which I do still struggle somewhat with.

Jak is an amazing guy; his videos are so great and filled with so much truth. Keep up the great work. He is a gift from God!

Jak is the rolemodel we needed as a young boys growing up. Glad you have steered many men away from pitfalls that my generation fell victim to.

I saw your 21 day video one and i was going to watch it but it was private by the time i wanted to watch it. so glad you made this video

You’ve really got me on the idea for this one, I’ve had terrible back pain for years now. I just spent the last 10 minutes or so lying on my floor, listening to another of your videos, but I couldn’t help but think about just how amazing just lying on my floor felt, yet I didn’t understand how I was finding enjoyment in it. Because I’m just 14, my parents will say it’s a stupid idea to sleep on the floor, so I doubt I’ll be able to ditch my bed for a good while, however I’m going to just sneak into my other room for the next few nights to try this out, like you suggested, because I feel like this could really be a change for the better. I’ve also made the decision to crack down on my nofap again, since I quit after a month last year. I’ve dont everything I can. I’ve built my foundation, and this house is going to be one to last. I love you Jak, with all my heart, for everything you’ve done and everything you will do ❤

You’re truly amazing, thanks for sharing your advice and journeys with us

I started doing it the night you uploaded this video and honestly its amazing. My lower back is looser, shoulders, neck, hamstrings, everything. When I wake up in the morning, I can just bend over and flat hand the ground. Never in my life would that be something I do before. Had one night that i wanted to try sleeping in my bed and spilt water on it, so the floor it was. I'm not going back, for a while at least. A yoga mat with a sheet on top is where its at for a while. Thanks for the push!

I'm so glad people are bringing light to this! I love sleeping on the floor, it's honestly super comforting if you have the right layout and it is SO much easier to get out of bed, It's quite literally a life saver, plus you feel so much more relaxed and well rested in the morning!

When I was in my early 20s and moved out of my parents' house, I didn't have a bed for about a year. It was uncomfortable, but you're right, it made it easier to get up and do stuff! Fast forward 20 years and I got a VERY comfortable adjustable bed with different modes (TV, Zero gravity, sleep mode, etc) and man it is hard to get myself out of bed and do stuff around my apartment. Add to that the fact that I have a small studio apartment and the bed is pretty much in the middle of everything. Don't get me wrong, I still have an active job, a social life, go hiking, and work out hard at the gym 3x a week. But when I'm at home, I'm either cooking, eating, or scrolling on my phone in bed.

I also have slept on a floor for 1+ month. You definitely start feeling better. my only issue i run into is rolling over and crushing my knees against the floor in the middle of the night, only downside I personally need to fix

I litterally wanna do it so much but at the same time im afraid of getting cold xD but i think im gonna try anyways. Youre the man jak keep it going🔥💯

Bro I did this actually because of your first video, it’s all true, I was on powerlifting prep and my hips and shoulder were always sore but the week before my meet I decided to sleep on the floor. It’s true I woke up early and didn’t lay in bed AND I wasn’t sore or in pain in my hips and shoulder by the time my meet came. Thank you for this.

Thanks so much Jak I love the video they’ve definitely improved my life❤️❤️❤️

KEEP UPLOADING THESE EDUCATIVE VIDEOS, YOU DEFINITELY WILL BECOME SUCCESSFULL, I Learnt a lot from your channel thank you so much ☺ 😊 , ALL THE BEST!!

I just started this challenge because of your last video. I’m really excited to see how it goes and I even got two of my friends to join!

I started to sleep on the floor the day u released ur first vide about it, no regrets at all, best thing that happened to me in 2024 so far

I talked to my personal trainer, who is an exercise doctor, about doing this and he said it is detrimental to your body recovering. Get a stiff mattress, don't sleep on the floor.

I started doing this a long Time ago and my parents got mad at me now I Finally got a reason to show them why it’s helpful

TBH not something I think I'll try, but huge respect. I have done research on it and I do think it is very beneficial for most people.

Just thought to share my own experience doing this twice before on different camping trips. The two times I did it, because I had to sleep inside due to it raining outside, I woke up both mornings after with a chest infection. Probably because I live in Ireland and it gets about as warm as 10 degrees. So it doesn't really work for me. I do understand your points in the video Jak but it's not something I'd try again.

I’ve been doing this since I was born. My dad bought me a bed when I was in my teens for the first time , used it for couple months didn’t like it but didn’t wanna be rude , but later on gave it away and went back to the floor.

I haven't laid in a bed in so long. After watching your video about sleeping on the floor for 7 days, I've been sleeping on the floor since then and it's been better, easier to get up, feel more well rested, less tight muscles, more comfortable on the floor outside of sleeping, it's made a bunch of stuff better. It's taken time, but it's happening.

I have some questions about floor sleeping since I started yesterday - What's the best sleeping position in terms of results? Should I always sleep on my back, or doesn't it really matter? - Is it good to have a pillow under your knees to help with the lower spine? I'm worried about making it too comfortable as it might slow the results Much like you, I was awake pretty much all night, but worst of all I wasn't certain I was doing it right Thanks in advance, you're awesome

Watching this video reminds me of the day I accidentally fell asleep on the floor, and it ended up being some of the best sleep I've gotten in a while. I'm going to try and go back to doing this and see if it really is as good as you claim it to be.

I remember starting to sleep ok the floor. The problem was that I still had muscle tension. I didn't know why until today I realized I pulled a hamstring. ❤

Challenge accepted. Marcus Aurelius did it and I wanted to try it but never committed to it. I'll take this as a sign to try it this time.

Hey Jak, really like your content man keep it up !! I have a suggestion : if you are looking for any new video ideas, I think a video of you explaining what made you want to start on RU-vid. I also would like to see you show us how you edit your videos, and get your music, lighting and effects etc… and how you come up with your ideas, it would be really interesting to see a behind fhe scenes sort of video of some sort. Again just idea. Love your content man keep up the hard work 👊👊❤

Been doing this for about a week now and I’m not stopping

I tried it for a month, but then try to come back to normal sleep and woke up way easier and got out of bed faster, while also having better sleep

My dad had a pretty bad back injury years ago and he fixed it by sleeping and working on the floor for about 6 months. Doctors were amazed that he had actually recovered from it. So it’s not just Jak who’s benefited from sleeping on the floor

As a scout i 100% agree to the benefitsof sleeping on the floor. I did it for more than 50 days in my life and it where like some of the best times in my life (since 2020).

Tonight will be my second night on the floor. My parents are moving soon and im staying behind, so i might as well get accustom to the discomfort now. Last night was rough, idk why, but it took untip 4am to fall asleep. Im actually laying on the floor as i type this right now. I can tell itll have an immense boost on productivity, though. Its so weird how much cooler my room feels from the floor, and i like the cold. W decision. I actually started because Alex Becker mentioned it and hes always on point

Hi Jak, hoping you will see this but I recently found your videos while I'm trying to get my life back in order and I can't stop watching them. I want to know more and I noticed that you have a discord link on your YT page and for some of your videos but it doesn't work for me, I was wondering if it was taken down or the invite link is just invalid. If you could please fix this I would greatly appreciate it! Keep up the good work, many Men and Men in the making (such as myself) need this. I hope God leads you down a great path and makes you a great role model for a lot of people!

Ya, thank you, delicately this is even more motivating to calm fully think clear.

I slept on the floor since Jak made that video but it didn't feel like anything changed. I'm on my bed again now though.

Yo jak, your an awesome dude keep up the good work you inspire us!

I usually dont sleep at noon but when i do i always sleep on flat hard ground and it just feels so much more refreshing

i have been doing it for around 10 days now thanks to you

Been sleeping on the floor for years now. Its great, I really love it. Tbh I actually find it more comfortable. Floormaxxing

I genuinely really like this guy

Thanks jak! ill try sleeping on the floor and hopefully it will benefit me as much as it did for you.

Yep, same. I had terrible back pain....started sleeping on the floor - pain was gone within few weeks. That was 4 years ago - never going back to regular mattress

[2:43]"Iam no chiropractor, I AM NOT DUCKING" lol, we believe you Jack. as long as you're not ducking

I can say. This is real, it's real i wake up relaxed and have a really good mood after i got up and so much more. Yeah and i' m pretty sure its good for you posture

Sleeping on the floor for 20 years.... Kind of I took the legs off my bed, so it's basically a mattress resting on the floor. 20 cm high, then I got a top-mattress making it 30 cm high in total. I used to be able to sleep well on a thin yoga mat, but over time my body needs a bit extra padding - or it will hurt and affect my sleep negatively. What REALLY helps is Yoga and exercise, it has kept me strong and flexible for even longer. The 'get out of bed' trains leg/thigh muscles well :ø)

I’ve been sleeping on the floor for about 20 days now, and It’s definitely helped overall. Try it out, I doubt you’ll regret it.

Hello Jak Piggott! This is true! I had a bed back then and i was getting back pain, its a good thing my bed broke, now i sleep on the floor.😅

i just had my sleep apnea tested (it was extremely bad, choking myself almost to death while sleeping) and its completely gone. I was shoked. Im not entirely sure but the only thing i really changed was switching from firm matress to sleeping on the floor. It could be a solution for some to try having apnea problems!

i have been getting lower back pain from around 3 months since i m trying to lift heavy in gym i m going to start sleeping on floor from today until next week sunday wish me luck!

I've been sleeping on the floor for 4 years now. At 63, my body loves it! 😃❤🙏✌

keep putting out this awesome content bro I’ve been going through smth personal, and these videos genuinely help me. I can’t think of anything rn other than an NPC comment.

In my Situation i dont think izs possible, but i will remeber these videos 💙🙏

That crazy jacked asian guy brought me to it. This was the second video to convince me. 1 month in and its feel healthy and more natural. Thank you. ❤

hey that's great! i am happy it changed your life for the better!

I usually can't sleep on the floor, but when I'm stressed or anxious I do and it helps a lot the next day. It's weird, but it works I guess this is something people have to try out in different situations to see if it's better or worse for them.

been doing this for over a year now. good to see im not the only crazy one

I watch these videos to try and wake me from a metaphorical slumber I can’t mentally break myself out of. Some stuff gets to me, but most stuff slides past my little brain. Maybe… this’ll help. I’ll comment back here in a week with results :)

I sawhis video too 0:14 i broke my back last year and the only thing that has helped is sleeping on a harder surface. The media and bed companies dont want you to know this. I am going to give up my bed next week and see the changes.

Slept on the floor for one night back feels shit but I’ll update in the comments for the rest of the week

I held a LAN party with my family and slept on the floor 3 nights in a row. It couldn't believe how well i slept.

It depends if you're a back, side or stomach sleeper. Sleeping on hard surface is best for back sleepers

as someone who has lack of sleep, i am definitely going to try this out soon

i broke my bed xD so now I have to sleep on the floor for a while I hope at least get a benefit from it since I also tend to have some pain on my back

I am Asian and this is nothing new to me, but I am happy for you!

Remember those days where you slept on the floor as a kid and it was amazing 🤩 this guy is living the dream

tbh i was once forced to sleep on the floor for a week and it was uncomfortable but then i started to like it, i also like sitting on the floor, but my room is disgusting but this video inspired me to get my room clean so i can sleep on the floor

My parents would never allow me to sleep on the floor so I just do the simple things to better life like cold showers or spending more time with family rather than my devices and stuff.

I’ll sleep today on the floor, let’s see how it goes

I never sleep well in a bed. Funny part is I sleep like a baby on a couch. Never could figure out why. I do always have back & neck pain though so I might try this.

I tried it for a week and havent come back to bed since then, a m a z i n g
