Tired and sleepy duringworkouts, - Monday, November 06, 2006 5:12 PM
Hey guys. I workout 6 days a week (try to - schedule is very tight) and every time i go to the gym or most times, i will feel really sleepy and exhausted.  I sleep about 5 hours a night if lucky, but even on days when i sleep 8 or maybe even ten, i get the same feeling.  after trying several caffeine pre-workout supps, i started using met-rx amped.  It works, but that feeling is still there.  any ideas?  Thanks everyone.

you just gotta sleep regularly like 8 hours a night. when you sleep 5 hours then you sleep 10 and your tired its because your body is out of wack

that does sound like a problem.  how about trying to slip some naps in there,  like 30 min to an hour ones in some free time?

I dont think working out 6 days a week is a bad thing if its easy to fit your workouts in when you want. But during a time when your schedule is busy, cutting down to 4 or 5 days may be beneficial to your overall lifestyle and to your gains.
 
The lack of sleep obviously isnt helping, and you really should be getting more than 5 hours sleep!
 
Can I also ask when was the last time you took a complete break from training? If you havent in the last couple of months, it could be an ideal time to take a week off from the gym
