Can’t Sleep After Taking Pre Workout Supplement

Can’t Sleep After Taking Pre Workout Energy Supplement

Getting a solid night’s sleep is absolutely vital for muscle growth and recovery. Take your sleep as seriously as you take your training and nutrition.

Some Guys train in the mornings other guys like to train at night after work or class.  I prefer to train in the evenings around 6-8pm.

Sometimes after taking my pre workout drink in the evening I then finish my workout go home, have dinner, relax a bit, and then try to fall asleep but end up staring at my ceiling for 2 or 3 hours before finally drifting off.

This sucks, I want my goddam energy in the gym, I want to train in the evening when I feel my strongest, and I want to get to sleep at a reasonable hour.

So what do you do if you Can’t Sleep After Taking Pre Workout drink?

Well you could smoke weed, that helps with getting to sleep.  Weed gives me massive munchies though and since i’m usually perma-cutting smoking weed much doesn’t fit my lifestyle.

The sleep supplement Melatonin works amazingly for me in situations like these.

Melatonin is a hormone made by a small gland in the brain. Melatonin helps control your sleep and wake cycles. Very small amounts of it are found in foods such as meats, grains, fruits, and vegetables. You can also buy it as a supplement.

What does melatonin do in the body?

Your body has its own internal clock that controls the natural cycle of sleeping and waking

hours. In part, your body clock controls how much melatonin your body makes. Normally, melatonin levels begin to rise in the mid- to late evening, remain high for most of the night, and then drop in the early morning hours.  Essentially Melatonin is the main hormone your brain releases to promote sleep.  Supplementing with melatonin has an immediate effect and makes you sleepy as hell within about 20-30 minutes.

If I can’t sleep after my evening pre workout energy drink then I pop 5mg Melatonin an hour before I need to be in bed sleeping and I sleep like a baby.  It’s cool because when I wake up I feel great too.

It doesn’t seem like much if any tolerance builds to this stuff either, I just keep it on hand in my

medicine cabinet and if I ever feel turned up, hyphy, or wired and night and I need to get to sleep I just take that 5mg of melatonin capsules and bam 30 minutes late i’m ready to hit the hay and drift off into a nice restful sleep.

Melatonin isn’t a drug either, so when you wake up you don’t feel drowsy or like shit.

Anyway, Melatonin is my secret weapon for getting to sleep after taking my pre workout energy supplement and training in the

evening.

^It’s only $3 Lol
