Should you workout on no sleep? I pondered this question this past Wednesday morning after only getting two hours of sleep the night before. What did I do? Well, if you haven’t already guessed it by now from the lack of posting, I skipped my Wednesday workout.
Still woke up at 5 AM, though. I ended up staring into space for two hours before work. Your brain doesn’t seem to function that well on such a short amount of sleep. At least, mine doesn’t. I watched the sunrise through my dining room window and watched my cat eat.
So, instead of the regular workout commentary I usually do, I gave you guys a peak at what’s inside my fridge, showed you what I typically make for my lunch to bring to work, and what I eat for breakfast on days that I”m not intermittent fasting. Yes, I decided to eat breakfast on a weekday, despite my rule against it. I made an exception because of the lack of sleep I got. Plus, I had to occupy myself somehow.
So, what I did was, I tacked this on to my Friday workout commentary and rolled it into one. Oh, and I talked about my new olympic plates that are going to help me to bridge the gap between what I’m lifting now and the heavy weights I will soon be lifting in the near future. Paid $120 for used and it was well worth it.
Did deadlifts, bent-over rows, seated military press, rear-delt work, and heavy standing bicep curls using the olympic bar. 3-5 sets of each for somewheres between 10-12 reps. It was a good workout because I felt rested this time. I also noticed I’m able to lift heavier, so it’s happening, guys!
Then, we talked about this phenomenon of soccer players around the world suddenly dying from heart-related illness, myocarditis, pericarditis and sudden cardiac arrest, sometimes right on the field.
The authorities are saying this is all normal, but we know better. This is all part of the cover-up, people. Wake up, open your eyes, and educate others about what’s going on. It’s up to you!
