🚨SLEEP IS A CHEAT CODE ‼️
Sometimes it’s hard to take my own advice.
Training these last couple of months have been a total drag. I felt low energy and my performance was very unreliable.
I knew what the problem was and it was that my sleep was off
Most people can get away with 7 to 8 hours of sleep every night. Personally, I need about nine hours of sleep every night to feel my best.
So when I was averaging 6 to 7 hours, I felt like total Doodoo.
I didn’t blame it on low testosterone or any other bogeyman that you’ll hear these days. The solution was simple. I just needed to go to bed earlier. Whether I wanted to lay down at 8 o’clock or not, I needed to be in bed so I could get the appropriate amount of sleep.
I’ve also reduced my caffeine intake quite a bit and made 8 AM my cut off for caffeine intake. This way I would have 12 hours before bedtime to allow the caffeine to get out of my system.
It’s been three consistent nights of high-quality sleep averaging 9+ hours every night and I’m feeling really really good.
So before you buy the next supplement or worry that you need all kinds of medical interventions, do an honest audit of your sleep and see if making some improvements will fix the problem
