Woke up today in the morning and felt great

[future_strongguy]

Usually I feel very tired when I wake up in the morning. Today, for some reason, I feel very awake and energetic. I want to replicate this every morning.

Some things I remember:
-I worked out at 8 PM, and slept at 10:30 PM. I had no post workout food.
-Had very vivid dreams
-I wake up every night to use the bathroom. Usually this is at 3:30 AM. Today for some reason it was at 2:30 AM

Some link it it stress and "having something to wake up to," but I don't believe it. Any ideas?

Today I'll try the same routine.

I wouldn't recommend eating nothing post-workout and THEN going to bed.

That takes quite a toll on your body. At least eat a piece of fruit and a protein shake afterwards.

The starvation will lead to vivid dreams. After fasting for 5 days, a few weeks back, my dreams were insanely real.

You're liable to eat away muscle by not eating post-workout, then going to bed.

 

[yep]

you probably felt great because you had good sleep. when i get 8-9 to nine hours i can go all day and feel great.

if i only get a few hours my confidence, strength, ect plumits beyond imagination. i only recently realized how important sleep was.

i go to bed to get 8 hours no matter what is going on

I usually wake up feeling great when I have something to look forward to.
Thats why I usually wake up early on the weekends full of energy to go and hangout with friends or to go out and have a great time.
