Recovery happens at it's highest level when you sleep. So even if you have some decent training sessions on little sleep, you'd have even better ones on more sleep. If you can get 10+ hours in plus a nap, watch what happens.....
I'm going to try and sneak a lunchtime nap in @ work and see if it makes a difference.

both weights and bodyweight still going up so far. I'm sure it will plateau eventually though.

If I could I would. I just can't ever actually fall asleep. If I get a nap in on the weekends it's like someone gave me a new body in terms of recovery.

I can't even imagine living like that. You must be aging at an unreal clip. Have you seen a sleep specialist?

I'll give it a try. I've been having a bitch of a time getting any sleep lately.

When I was younger. I go through bouts where I am fine. Fall asleep on my own, sleep all night, etc. Then I'll have 1 night and it all starts from there.

I love sleep, I just can't seem to get as much of it as I want. :(

It's not so much that it makes you sleepy, but it relaxes your mind which allow you to fall asleep easier.
I've been taking generic lorazapam for years for that effect.

I'll definitely try it unless it's like $30 a bottle...

That's a solid choice. I go back and forth between lunesta and ambien when I REALLY need to catch up.

A few days ago when I woke up, I remembered my dream completely. I felt like I had control over what I did in the dream. Last night I decided to test it and I told myself I'm going to dream about trains. It sorta worked because I ended up riding a train from Philly to LA in my dream. I don't know. Its weird. I remember so much detail from my dreams since I've started taking it. Very vivid stuff.
Dude if I was going to test it my topic of choice wouldn't be trains. WTF?

Maybe just not THAT type of train.

I wanted to test it on something that I never dream or think about.

If you really wanna have vivid, ****ed up dreams....put on a nicotine patch before bedtime. I'm dead serious. It's nuts. For me at least.

If you aren't in a hurry I would pick it up on Amazon. NOW is a cheap quality brand.
I take their Omege -3 and CoQ10.

I bought it at The Vitamin Shoppe.

What if you don't want to dream about trains? Do they have a version that is about ships and boats?
