[QUOTE="JimGainz, post: 164344, member: 19127"] I too have wrestled with us over the years and believe I have found a solution that works most of the time. I’m going to assume you have all of the basics down pat first/ dim the lights, comfortable bed, comfortable temperature, not working out too close to bedtime, avoiding excessive caffeine etc. Beyond that here is what I currently do: - slightly lowered my Trt dose to under 100 mg. Prior to this I was taking around 120 and occasionally higher. I found that I always get my best sleep when it’s around 80-100 mg/wk - take 400 mg of magnesium. This smooths out the muscles and makes you feel like you just had a massage. Very important - I too have experimented with CBD and THC and found that they are fantastic for sleep. If I take a gummy with 4.5 mg of THC or a tincture with THC and CBD oil right before bed, I am good for 5 straight hours before I wake up. I do not live in a state where this is legal – but I ran some business trips to California and bought a few to take home. Honestly one vial of tinctures will last about 3 to 4 months not trying to talk you into doing something illegal but it it definitely will help. I only take the CBDTHC supplements occasionally – I seem to do fine on the magnesium alone, although I wake up more often. - I also use Dhea nightly. Helps with adrenal fatigue to combat the cortisol. I find that it helps some people say it works them. - I know some pro bodybuilder folks who also swear by taking some carbs late at night like a scoop or two of oatmeal – apparently this has something to do with cortisol and glucose levels – I’ve never felt the need to do this but wanted to pass it on. I think Dorian Yates used to do this well [/QUOTE]
