Okay...am not sure why but for some reason I could not get any sleep last night. Any is a strong word. Got to bed at 2100 expecting a full 8 hours and simply tossed all night. I guess it didnt help that the typhoon was rattling my patio doors and gates throughout the night but I turned on the aircon to drown out the night noise and still sleep was rubbish.
I wake up in the morning with a sore throat! I was PISSED. The last thing I need is to get sick. Went into the gym for my early AM workout a little late and decided not to jump/run to keep the throat safe and comfortable. Rubbish of a day.
PCP....60%, no cardio and lunch and dinner were out...where the weight scale gets fuzzy!
You're doing a lot more sweating than you were before. Drink plenty of water before and after you work out and before you go to bed. Dehydration is one thing, but sleep loss is often due to low carb (don't know why). Another thing is if you exercise late your body is still pumping and aching a lot. I'd take a couple of pain killers from time to time to help me catch up on sleep. Its the last thing that Patrick would recommend, but when you haven't slept properly for a good few days, it really helps! I'm off PCP now and while I still exercise an hour a day, I'm back on slightly higher carb and...er..booze. I sleep like a lamb.
ReplyDeleteIt happens man, leave some space before sleep to calm down and if you absolutely can't sleep just get up and do something rather than toss and turn!
ReplyDeleteTake some relax time after your workouts before you head off to bed..i think it will make your body bit calmer and will help to get a better sleep.
ReplyDeleteWell, sorry i could not reply regarding Florence thing. We were in Rome and then drove to Florence, on our way, we saw the Place that you mentioned.
