To perform at their gold-medal winning best, the athletes of Team USA need a mattress that supports restorative sleep — and we were lucky enough to test that very mattress. We slept-on the Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress, now $400 off at Saatva, and we can see why it’s helping athletes fall asleep fast.
Saatva, the brand behind the year’s best mattress we’ve tested, is the Official Mattress and Restorative Sleep Provider of Team USA, meaning they outfitted 110 bedrooms at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center with the Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid.
Why the Memory Foam Hybrid is the mattress for Team USA
Saatva has many mattresses in its line-up, from the Saatva Classic (the best Saatva mattress) and the Saatva RX (the best mattress for back pain), but the Memory Foam Hybrid is the one that helping Team USA sleep after a long day of training.
And we have the inside track as to why it’s the perfect mattress for the team.
“The Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid relieves pressure while supporting your back, hips, and shoulders,” explained lead tester Alex Temblador. “Though it’s a firmer bed, it’ll suit all types of sleepers. You’ll also enjoy a cooler night’s sleep, good motion isolation, and superb edge support.”

This universal comfort, great pressure relief, breathability, and sturdy edges mean that sleepers are supported. This lumbar support is a huge benefit, especially for athletes, as sleepers “won’t deal with lower back or hip pain.”
And a good night’s sleep is the foundation of recovery, which is essential to performing at your athletic best. Which, by the way, is why Saatva is outfitting the beds of Athlete’s Village at the 2024 L.A. Olympics.
Alternative mattresses for an active lifestyle
The Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid isn’t the only mattress ideal for active lifestyles. These luxury hybrid mattresses are all athlete-friendly beds thanks to their support and comfort.
