JUST ONE OF THOSE BAD DAYS

We have 60 a year: poll

Having yet another bad day? It’s probably due to a lack of sleep because a stressful work shift had you tossing and turning overnight.

A poll of 2,000 Americans concludes people experience about 60 bad days each year — and 80 percent of the time those lousy days are triggered by work-related stress.

A lack of sleep compounds problems and accounts for 67 percent of an individual’s dissatisfaction on any given day, according to the data compiled by researchers for the fitness app Freeletics.

Other factors compounding life’s daily miseries for 60 days out of 365 included feeling ill, worrying about money and having plans unceremoniously canceled. Bad hair days are a bummer, too. One in 4 respondents say frustration over uncooperative hair can put them in a pique for the entire day.

Another 25 percent report that having no hot water for their morning shower can put a damper on everything, the study finds.

A small percentage of respondents — 8 percent — said a loss by a favorite sports team can trigger 24 hours of depression.

Bad days lead half of all respondents to wash down the misery by eating unhealthy food.

And 34 percent report they drown a bad day out by throwing back some booze at the end of it.

John-Francis Kennedy, a personal trainer at Freeletics, said respondents were also asked about their exercise routines.

Half say working out gives them more energy at the office and 44 percent report exercise makes them feel more motivated.

“These findings make a lot of sense,” Kennedy said,

“Working out after a tough day can be a very effective stress reliever, especially because it boosts those all-important endorphin levels.”

Still, while 95 percent of respondents agreed workouts and physical exercise usually help their mood, it didn’t mean they did anything about it:

Only a fifth of respondents have a gym membership, citing cost.
