I know its hard to think of things to do at 4:00 am...
Sounds crazy but try sit ups or push ups in your room - or free weights |
ummm...i dont think that's such a good idea...exercising right before bed or when tryin to fall asleep only makes things worse...exercise should be done earlier in the day |

The high is only temporary... for me anyway.
And yes, I recently heard that it's bad for your lungs... but pounding the sidewalk (provided that it's not icy) in sub-zero temperatures feels f*cking awesome
Always clears the nasal passage and just feels overall refreshing. |

There's also another option that doesn't even require moving from your bed... which I'm not going to state explicitly. lol |

If you decide to read, don't read anything that's exciting, as it will build your adrenaline and disrupt your sleep. Same goes for TV, I find listening to Sportsnet or The Score all night puts me out faster than anything else. If that fails, try TV Guide ;)
How many things in your room are plugged in? There's a theory that's starting to pick up that says that the energy in the room that comes from electrical things that are plugged in can screw with your subconcious blah blah blah, lots of technical words I'm too lazy to think of right now... Either way, unplug all your . I used to have 2 fish tanks, a stereo, TV, Lava Lamp, clock and multiple gaming systems all set up in my room. My sleep improved vastly once I shut down one of he tanks, and unplugged my power-bar for the TV/Stereo/Gaming Consoles. It may have been a mental thing more than any actual evidence of the phantom load theory, but it worked for me.

lol but that takes too much effort.. thats like working out.
ive pulled out my notes, sometimes helps sometimes doesnt
i live in a bachelor pad so everything is pretty confined. i dont really leave my computer on anymore and my cable box gets turned off after watching tv. ive heard that as well... plus some electronics make little buzzy noises which are annoying.
whoever's living above me have been making quite a bit of noise as of late... lots of creaking, mild television noise... but its ok, i return the favour with a steady stream of 128 bpm |

There's also problem with running at night during winter. More likely you'll slip on black ice and hurt yourself. |
hahaha good call (I guess my initial answer wasn't specific to the winter season)
It doesn't even need to be night - as I learned around 2:00 today.
In thread bitching about snow, you can find a detailed description of the triple axle I did on a nasty patch of ice. :toocool: |

Eh. It's that fear of slipping keeps me from pounding the pavement as hard as i can, thus I don't feel like I'm getting maximum workout for the run.
I suppose I can invest in some winter running shoes but I can't be arsed :p |

| I wouldn't recommend strenuous exercise if you're trying to sleep cause it'll get your heart rate going and will keep you up instead. I take a couple gravols if I need to get up early and can't sleep. They're for motion sickness but they're good as sleep aids too. Just don't take too many cause you can hallucinate of them s. |

I typically get out of bed, glass of red wine, or something like that, and just lie back down. It usually does it |

Eat a healthy serving of turkey a couple hours before bed-time. It's been a while since I've done the research, but turkey either has melatonin in it, or it has something in it that causes your body to start producing melatonin, which is the chemical that makes you sleepy. |
actually recent research has found that turkey does not contain quite enough of the chemical to make you sleepy |
