I like the new avatar Rosie, still not as good as mine though :icon_lol:
I get that really bad once I'm back in school, like now lol. Some things I do to help me are;Actually, I've always had trouble FALLING asleep, because my mind never stops thinking; but usually once asleep, the sleep is great.
I find that my BEST training sessions, resistance in particular, are done on NO sleep whatsoever (i.e. an all-nighter)! Yeah, I like 4-5 hours sleep; that has Rosie at her OPTIMAL operating and functional level.You know Jmh80 has found when he has bouts of insomnia and has less than about 3 hrs of sleep that he feels great for most of the day and then CRASHES maybe an hour or so after work is finished - right in the middle of a workout.
Anyway - I saw you had a similar experience the other night. I don't totally understand it (nor do I do it on purpose).
:cheers:I like the new avatar Rosie, still not as good as mine though :icon_lol:
seriously? I think i'd pass out. I know when i get 4-5 hours sleep i feel like crap the next day. I like a good 8 hours a night :dance:I find that my BEST training sessions, resistance in particular, are done on NO sleep whatsoever (i.e. an all-nighter)!

Too MUCH sleep, IMO. For me, at any rate. If I can't sleep, then NOTHING helps me go to sleep.I get that really bad once I'm back in school, like now lol. Some things I do to help me are;
- pen and paper near my bed, and I write things down that I remember that I don't want to forget
- completely dark room/eye shades
- earplug + fan ( drones out street noise)
- deep breathing/clearing my mind beforehand (If I'm really antsy)
Anyways glad you got your 8 hours of sleep
SERIOUSLY, YAH. I feel like crap if I get too much MORE sleep than that! (But my body is all ****ed up from years of split, back-to-backs, and night shifts, and weird sleeping patterns because of training and study, so, um, yeah).seriously? I think i'd pass out.

Over sleeping can be crap. If i sleep 10-12 hours i feel like poop for the rest of the day so i try keep it at 8. I wouldn't mind being able to sleep 4-5 hours and be alright. Would make loads more time for eating and catching up on TVToo MUCH sleep, IMO. For me, at any rate. if I can't sleep, then NOTHING helps me go to sleep.

Sometimes the body DOES need the extra sleep. Which is ok and understandable. Any other time is not acceptable, though...Over sleeping can be crap.

LOL. Cheers, LW :head:Sub..sorry im late.
Nice log so far Rosie, very informative...Knock em dead!!
Keep up the great work!

Evening off? I wish...And I'm ABOUT to update for TODAY soon.:jaw:
I think I'd get dizzy, pass out, and vomit...in that order. I need 6+ hours to function properly, 8+ hours on days before heavy lifts.
Enjoy the evening off Rosie. (if I'm reading your update right)
Is it just? You can be just as productive with a SHORTER day, too!I wish I could function well off of 4-5 hours of sleep. That's what I would consider a blessing. That's four or five extra hours of productivity in your day.
Not the study, Hurley. Libido rises and falls with mood, stress, and training levels, for the most part.Hmm... school work and lack of libido... homework does the same thing to me.
Yeah, I did (thanks for that). Yeah. And again today. Still too MUCH, IMO, for ME. But...shrug...Back to 'Rosie normal' soon, I hope...Rosie, I think you meant just over 8 hours of sleep. Still a good amount. I wish I could sleep 8 hours during the week!
We most certainly are! And that's a good thing (else this world would be bloody boring)!8.5 hours is the sweet spot for me on a workout day. Taking 1-Carboxy shaves 30-60 minutes off that for me. Non-WO I need about 7.5-8. I guess we're all unique
Hiya, Rob. The "log Rosie"? She's no different from the Rosie you see everywhere else, LOLWow! Very detailed log! Im in for sure! Metroba digs the log Rosie!
yes her avy's are pretty awesome :goodpost:Not that my opinion matters much, but Rosie, just from your avy I can see you're making good progress...
hang in there, you're looking great!:thumbups:
Progress? You can't tell from looking at an avi, LOL. But thanks anywaysNot that my opinion matters much, but Rosie, just from your avy I can see you're making good progress...
hang in there, you're looking great!:thumbsup:
yes her avy's are pretty awesome :goodpost:
Diggin' the new avy, Rosie. :thumbsup:
Cheers, guys. And yes, Rob, there ARE flaws (maybe you don't notice them, but I'm so CRITICAL that I do. And yes, I've been 'told off' about that as well).Flaws?! pffftt! Lookin good in that avi Rosie!
:think:Body Composition and Look: All I see are the FLAWS at the moment. And they take away from anything that might actually be ok (Grrrr...)
Yes, well, you guys don't get to see me naked every day :frustrate:think:
:fool2:
True, but I get to see myself naked every day! :woohoo:Yes, well, you guys don't get to see me naked every day :frustrate
Trust me, I'm critical with EVERYONE! Hell, I could ruin PORN pretty fast for you guys because of how critical I would be of any female (then again it might not make a difference; you guys think ANYthing looks "hot", etc., from what I've seen of the females you post in your logs )I think we're all picky like that with ourselves much more than we are with other people.
Ummmm... her glutes are WAY TOO shapely!!!My girlfriend Jessica.
Fire away.
LOL! Something tells me it's just not the same...True, but I get to see myself naked every day! :woohoo:
Oops! :woohoo:haha I never thought Id see other chicks posted in Rosie's thread :lol:
She has a gorgeous face. But her body is just scrawny, like an adolescent...Shapely, Adams? There's nothing there! See what I mean. You guys call ANYTHING good looking or ripped or whatever. You're not fussy; anything will do (and don't bother denying it). Anyways, I am DONE on this topic. IT ENDS NOW!!!My girlfriend Jessica.
Fire away.

Awesome simile.Like a box of fluffy ducks
And I am the one with the err on the human body? Because it isn't "Rosie" standards then it doesn't live up to the definition of fine? I mean I do know "Opinions" are like *******s and all, but come on. Because Rosie can't appreciate it doesn't make that person any less beautiful because you think otherwise.She has a gorgeous face.
