You're probably a bad gauge on this though with your weight being so high and a poor diet...

One cup of coffee in the morning.

I wake up at 6am latest, sometimes skate(board) in the morning or practice drums (studio across the street) and work from 8am to 4pm. Go to the gym for an hour at 2pm. Get home and look after my toddler until 9pm. Wife comes home and chill with her until 11pm. Asleep by midnight latest.

No grogginess, no naps, no yawning...don't know what your problem is OP, I am 45 and feel my age.

up @ 4AM crew. more wore out than tired, but when I hit the pillow at night its over. also have two young kids, sleep has been a precious commodity in our home.

try tapering your caffeine intake over the next week or two. sometimes i need a good reset and my tolerance goes way back down.

Don't agree with fundamentals of sleep so always tired crew.

Usually get about 5-6 hours, have two coffee's throughout day.

If you're tired it's most likely bad diet and sleep hygiene. If not get a sleep study and blood work for body issues, anemia etc.

I'll be 31 in a few weeks and right now it entirely depends on how much sleep I get. If i can get 7-8 I won't be tired till around 930pm unless I eat a giant lunch. Any less and I'll be dragging most of the day but I've kind of always been that way.

I don't drink any coffee but I will have 1 cup of english breakfast tea in the morning around 9:30am and one 100mg caffeine pill as a preworkout around 4:30pm.
hard to hate on a fellow wings fan but....


i need to cut... badly.

It’s not really about agreeing with them when there is science to back them. Prof. Matthew Walker has explained this in detail.

44 and nap during lunch hour almost daily. I drink maybe half cup of coffee a day.

I think the biggest thing for me as I've gotten older is that I wake up not because I'm ready to wake up but because I'm sore from lying in bed. Usually either hips or shoulders. I rotate from sleeping on my left side to my right side many times a night but I still get sore.

I constantly tell my wife that I feel myself getting old and she laughs at me (she's 30) telling me I am nuts and I do more than guys half my age are doing.

Reading your post makes me realize she is right...I feel old at 45 doing what I'm doing...if I was doing what you are doing I would feel 85. You'd better change some sh*t up boyo...you ain't getting younger and it will only get worse...your starting point of decline sucks balls.

Cut out the hour long nap all together brother, if unable try 15 minutes as an hour puts you into a crappy semi rem state leaving you foggy the rest of the day.

You're tried all the time because of caffeine dependence clearly. Cut the caffeine down to a few times per week, instead of few times per day and you will feel a lot better.

You have caffeine addiction.

Stop being a bitch, get up early to lift and allow yourself one coffee or energy drink in the morning. Your quality of life will go way up

How good is your diet, is it a desk or physical job, do you take a second dose of caff late afternoon (2pm), how much time at the gym, how is your sleep, how is your recovery?

Maybe I'm not using correct expression, what I'm getting at is that I struggle to get enough sleep because I believe it to be a waste of time/your life....though I do not disagree it's a necessity to actually function... it's still a 1/3 of your life that your legit not doing anything with.

I'm 35.

Only times I get tired:

If I eat heavy meals (like lots of meat, or potatoes, carbs (bread etc))

When I crash (like say from coffee)


Other than that I function just fine with 6-8 hours of sleep (or even less), no coffee, etc.

Are you sitting on your ass for 4+ hours every day? You need to move your body around. Go for 5min walks multiple times per day. Breathe deeply.

I haven't had coffee for yonks and it doesn't affect me.
I still have more energy than most 20-25 year olds based on observation.

I look forward to being able to sprint/jog because why not when I'm 40.
