I can't sleep

[Kirkatis]

Anyone else have the problem with nitric oxide supplements keeping them awake? I have tried no-xplode, superpump 250, and no shotgun, and now I think I can't take anything like this because it keeps me awake at night. anyone else have problems like this.

 

[Cellardude]

they all have absurd amounts of caffeine in them.

What do you expect?

If you MUST take a pre-workout supplement but you want to sleep properly, perhaps try some RPM.

The caffeine content isnt that crazy.

Also watch when you take N.O Xplode.

I would avoid taking it past 4 PM in the afternoon.

 

[nosnmiveins]

i agree with cellar, if i take anything with caffeine past 4-5pm i never get to sleep

how long have u been using the NO boosters u mentioned? did u take breaks in between them?

 

[Rugger]

I've heard nothing but phony things about NO products. Anyone else hear the same? I mean they give you pumps but what else?

 

[dragonarm]

i havent slept for like a year

stop taking caffeine unless its first thing in the day and use something along the likes of zma/zmk or alri lean dreams before bed, if that doesnt work go to work doc and get a script sleep aid.

How soon before bed are you taking them? And how soon before bed is your final workout?

You need to allow yourself 3 hours for yoru heart rate to regulate itself.

Man get off the caffeine! Don't take it within 6-8 hours of bedtime. If you need a preworkout booster that doesn't have caffeine, look into Drive and possibly Neovar stacked together. They make one incredible pre-workout stack that will get you amped without caffeine in it to keep you up!

Just take a little melatonan about 1 hour before bedtime. Sleep like a charm, wake up refreshed, reduces cortisol levels too!!! Just dont use more than 3-4x per week, more than that and I wake up a lil groggy. Also you might find that you will wake up rather early on the melatonan; my experience is to go ahead and get up then, if I do I feel great, but if I decide to go BACK to sleep and sleep longer, I wake up tired.

I hope you're still awake when that happens.

As embaresing as it is, the 1st time no. I was sleeping and woke up for some reason thought I had to push out a fart and well it wasn't :jaw: so use your imagination from there. From then on I woke up. I thought it was the stomach flu, somthing I ate,etc.. but after about 8 days I narrowed it down to takeing 2 caps before bed instead of 1. Weird I know.

Thats sort of a viciouse cycle then guys, taking the caffeine to energize him, then melatonin to sleep, then caffeine again to wake him back up. I would not reccomend any sleep aids until his caffeine content is eliminated late in the day.

if you wanna stick with a solid NO preworkout supp minus the caffeine you can try out Milennium;s Caffeine Free Ragnorak. I have heard nothing but good things about it.

A ton of people aren't aware of their total caffeine intake during the day. Realistically... 1 cup of coffee should make you feel different. If it doesn't you need to cut that **** back.

THanks for the props. Also take a look at Somnidren-GH and you can combine it with ZMK. Lean Dreams worked well for me too but keep in mind it uses melatonin. Melatonin is very effective but you build a tolerance rather quickly. Lean Dreams imo needs to be cycled 2 on/ 3 off or similar to prevent this or use it only on days it is really needed.
