V12man Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 My problem is that if I go to bed that early I just don't sleep or cant sleep. I have tried shifting the internal clock but I just does not work... So I get up at 5am after going to bed at 10:30pm (usually) and I am at work 6:30. I then leave work at 15:00 -15:30 to give me time to ride in the evening for 1-2 hr. Or if I am not home early enough, I hit the IDT for 1-2hrs depending what I need to do. I now take only 1 day a week totally off the bike and 1 other day on a recovery ride on the IDT for an Hour. I do however need to do more on the weekends and do bigger rides >100km.And maybe sub 1 day a week to do more weights and Running which my knees are going to hate me for.Bit of a WAG - but I suspect your afternoon/early evening ride is what stops you sleeping earlier.. - there are some short term post exercise physiological/hormonal changes that I can see could contribute to that.
Pikey Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Awwwwww SLEEP. I normally get to bed at 23h00, hopefully sleeping by 23h30. Wake at 03h50, meet the guys at 04h30. Yes I get very very little sleep but im sort of used to it. After work/early evenings i can squeeze a 1 hr nap. Weekends I take plenty of napsoh that to on the wkds,can kip for 2hrs after along ride ,in fact any ride ????

No time for naps during that contemplation...... :ph34r:

No time for naps during that contemplation...... :ph34r: Also your definitions will change, what you previously thought of as a nice long nap will now become your sleep...
V12man Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 No other issues at all...my wife would be killing herself laughing if she read this. Although sleeping is an issue for me ,not falling a sleep but staying a sleep. Possible my quality of sleep is lacking...I can wake up tired. I though the older you get the less sleep you need am in my mid/late 40's . Reading this thread has made me realize how little sleep most ppl can get buy on. Can't sleep late ,6,30 latest but really battle with any thing before 6am.You should google the "dawn phenomenon".... and the "Somogyi effect"....
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 No you don't need to try it - it does also explain why Myles waistline approaches the size of his chest.... :ph34r: edit - but I see Myles is now gong to gym to do weights - so maybe soon his chest will be the same size as his waist..... (damn... on a roll this morning and its not even friday...)Lol. Yeah yeah. Although I've only ever partaken in that practice twice, the taste was simply divine.

Omumborombonga Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 oh goodness, those Stroopwafels are glorious! You should try the way the Nederlanders do it... brew a fresh coffee, and stick it on top of the mug to warm up whilst the coffee cools down a bit. Almost melts teh stroop and makes it lekker warm...
