honest question......is this why i always wake up with a morning glory?

Re: Sleep The Forgotten Bodybuilder

Men with sleep apnea are known to have lower testosterone levels.
Puts a terrible load on the heart too.

I'm sure that's true!! - peeing in your sleep that is not the retarded bit of course

As I get up to train before 6am most mornings (5am when swimming) I go to bed at around 10:30pm but probably not asleep until 11pm. So I probably only get 6 hours at best. To get 7-8 hours I would need to be in bed for 9-9:30 and asleep by 10pm. I guess the question is should I go to bed earlier or train later/less??

But I supplement that so I should be alright? I upped the doses recently.


I have:
Dry throat upon waking
Sore from snoring I assume
Snore for Britain
Sinuses
often wake up to change position in sleep
noticed sleep apnea a few times

I've taken to sleeping with numerous pillows to get various body parts comfortable.

Re: Sleep The Forgotten Bodybuilder

Testosterone supplementation actually increases sleep apnea.

Get a c-pap machine or one of those mouth pieces that push the lower jaw out to open the passage.
