Today I slept for more than 6 hours during the day time itself. 2.5 hours in the morning to late afternoon then it was 3+ hours during the evening, 3 45 pm to 7 20 pm.
I had travelled out of town and trekked hard for the 2 out of the last 3 weekends and other than that I was working out in the gym rest of the days.
My parents were shocked when they saw me sleep so much. I had not slept like this in the last 5 plus months odd. I used to sleep during weekends but it used to be 1 hour max 2 hours. I was wondering, what may be the reason for this.
I have been bit irregular at the gym this week, not working out regularly and absentee for the last 3 days and on weekend reason being out of town.
I did not have the usual after effects of workout, plus I had food, plus I had the satisfaction that I had got to travel out overcoming my mood swings. All this made me sleep like crazy. But the real thing was I had not worked out, working out induces pain, which rather disrupts deep sleep.
Your legs, shoulders, thighs are aching constantly, you feel purturbed by their movement, then how do we get deep sleep. Well that is what I think. It may be one of the reason, I have not slept properly in the last few months. Properly meaning this depth.
So, what is the solution for getting deep sleep even after work out. How do people who do manual labor get to sleep deep?
The answer is universal. Yes, that is what I told my parents all about, who again and again insist I am in bad company!
Its LIQUOR / ALCOHOL. Yes, please, though this may be my conclusion, I feel its pretty true. Why do people doing manual labor drink alcohol, why do drivers, especially truck drivers drink. Its this pain which makes sleep a far factor which makes them drink.
I am writing based on my personal experience, without hard work and without alcohol.
There have been days after my Himalayan treks where I had sleepless nights owing to the changes in altitude, plus location etc etc. Those days I was craving for sleep after a hard hard trek, but it never came. I used to wake up at 3 am in the morning, without sleep till 6-7 am and then sleep.
On such days I wish, I had a 90ml handy. But none whatsoever. I suffered without sleep.
My parents insist that, I have fallen into bad company talking about drinking, but the truth is, its more out of necessity than out of the need for sheer indulgence. Same with people who do hard hard work and who need a good sleep to get back to work and concentrate.
Cheers, and loads of respect to those people who put in hard hard work. Enjoy your drink guys!
