hello guys,
i have a huge problem, i cant seem to get a good night sleep for the past 3 months after i start working out at the gym...i know its weird but have any of you guys suffer from this problem too?? restless night....it took me 2 hours to sleep, its really annoying when you need to wake up early the next day for class.people tell me that maybe i am stress out that is why i cant sleep, but i am having my holiday now, i got nothing to be stress anymore..i tried not working out 6 hours before sleep,drink more water,drink milk before sleep and i stop taking caffeine.
the thing is if i stop working out for 4 days the symptoms stop. please dont tell me i need to stop working out. guys help me!!! thanks

bro do it in the morning. dont do it few hours before you sleep.
I had this problem last time.
so i excercise in the morning to prevent i have insomnia.

Cheers!

You're thinking too much about the coming workouts. The adrenaline's already hitting you the day before you start the session. That or you worry too much about whether you're growing or not, etc whether you did the right things at the gym and all that. Take a chill pill, it happens to overeager beginners.

my best time is right after work.... i.e at 6pm.. until like 8... after tht, hit the shower... COLD 1. in i'll be asleep by 8.15, just after finished showering..

odd phenomenal ...u supposed 2 be tired at night after having restless day .i can sleep easily at night after back from gym,maybe diffrent body acts diffrently to diffrent people.

did that too....but the result is still the same...

I suggest you reread my post then start retrospecting about it whether it's true or not.

well after the 1st month i thought i was thinking too much...but its already in the 3rd month and i cant get a proper sleep....i even tried reseting my sleeping time(staying up the whole day then sleeping early the next night) but it didnt work...still i need to wait 2-3 hours to fall asleep...

Use the extra 2-3 hours to do something productive! Unlike me, hanging out here on Low Yat until I pass out.

alright..i try your advice....if this doesnt work does it mean i need to take medication for this problem??? damn...thanks anyways...

You took coffee/fatburners/other supps preworkout?

i stop any caffeine base food or drink for 3 week...nothing has change...

Stop for a few days (or a week) and see if the problem goes away.

If it does, then you might need to change your workout time, or change the workouts you do.

Like someone said before, just do something productive.

I was kinda worse than you, I can only sleep like 2 hours a day or no sleep at all for roughly weeks. Look, http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=871505&hl=, this was when it was just beginning, then it worsen till I can't sleep at all. Stopped after I stopped taking whey.

Are u taking supplements? Maybe you not eating balanced diet, must have vege in every meal but balanced, not too much in anything.

Most ppl who are involved in bodybuilding suffer from insomnia because they think too much about bodybuilding. It can develop into chronic insomnia. I was one of them.

Ever since I have given up serious training, I can sleep much better now but still it will come back once in awhile.

im having the same problem too, even if i get to sleep early, ill wake up in the midst of the night, then its hard to fall asleep again.
