Anyone take anything for tiredness and lethargy? Apart from speed (lol) is there anything that will give me a kick up the backside and stop me feeling so tired?

    Rest! If your normal rest days no longer do it for you, have a week off and come back stronger :flowerforyou:

    Sleep... Maybe some caffeine if sleep and a proper diet doesn't help? Zzz...

    Vitamin D... if you have low levels takes a few days, but then you'll feel less tired.

    Caffeine, to keep it legal.
    For me; 4 cans of coke zero most days (which actually isn't much).
    It's noticeable that I find it easier to quit it when not eating at a deficit.

    Maybe shake things up with something fun you've wanted to try for a while. No, not that, you pervert :tongue:

    If I was into bulking to put on muscle, I would drink a lot more coke zero. I'm about 3 times hungrier when I drink it. I really don't know why.

    Caffeine pills are great, though.

    Some people do find that happens from the artifical sweeteners. Never find that myself, but certainly worth avoiding if it does that for you!

    Drink water! Mild dehydration can cause fatigue and tiredness. :drinker:

    In my experience, you have to use energy to have energy. :)

    When I feel lethargic or lacking energy, I typically find that it's just my mind playing tricks on me. What's really going on is usually a lack of motivation or determination. If I force myself to hit the gym or the dojo despite how I feel, I rarely have a problem doing a full workout. I might feel like crap and really want to stop, but if I focus on pushing through it (rather than feeling sorry for myself) then I can still have a great session.

    If a stimulant like caffeine helps give you an extra push, then by all means go for it. In the long run though, self-discipline is the most important factor.
