Waking up fresh? How do you do it?

ZMA at night...20oz of water before I even take a leak.

Your body has gone hours without fluids... you're always dehydrated.

Whats your diet like?

I had trouble with this until I started eating right and only drinking water.

I take ZMA and 6mg Melatonin before bed. I always shoot for 8.5-9 hours of sleep, fuck anything less.

I downloaded an app " sleep better ", it records your sleep and stuff, there is an alarm that avoid to wake you up during your deep phase of sleep. With this drink water do sport and keep your 8 hour per nights.

I have the same problem you have. Honestly I think it has to do with the following factors...

Level of physical activity Length of sleep Temperature in the room you sleep in Level of light in sleeping room Diet Timing of meals Any chemicals you may be taking If you had sex before sleeping

It's hard to constantly live each day ideally but when I do I wake feeling awesome, I'm personally torn between wanting to get up at 4am and crush it in life vs getting the extra sleep I need to be fully rested. In general, eliminate all lights in your bedroom, even the alarm clock glare. You want pitch black, also you can go so far as to use Amber colored night-lights in the pisser and even phone covers that filter out the most harmful color spectrums that disrupt melatonin. Keep the room you sleep in on the cold side and avoid eating within a couple hours of laying down. Don't do anything non sleep related in bed except sex so you can train your mind to power down as soon as you hit the sheets. I've recently been experimenting with yoga after years of thinking it was for sissies but a little yoga and meditation are so effective it's sick. Throw a little sprint in and a few pull-ups. Also go to bed and wake at the same time everyday.
