Pre-workout

I'm just wondering about how long pre-workout lasts (looking at C4 more specifically)? I am wanting to try it, but the only problem is that due to my schedule I don't workout until about 1am and then I have to be back home by 4am and get right to sleep and wake up with my toddler around 8-9am when she wakes up. I'm wondering if it will keep me from falling asleep or if that would be enough time for the effects to wear off?

What sort of schedule do you have that makes you work out at 1am, home at 4am,and awake again at 8?

Id be more concerned by the lack of sleep - not getting enough sleep isn't good for you! I'd be looking at my schedule and making it work better. Perhaps you don't have time to work out right now.... If that's a priority for you, perhaps you need to drop something else.

I'm a mother who works 3rd shift and doesn't use a babysitter. Of course it isn't ideal, but as for now it is really just how things in my life with my family and my income have to work without getting into more personal information. I don't do anything other than work and take care of my little one so there isn't really anything else to drop. I am hoping to be off of this shift eventually, but for now I'm kind of stuck here until I can find a job paying a couple dollars more on the hour to make up for daycare expenses ($200/week around here). She also takes a nap most days so I get another hour or two of sleep later in the day. It sucks, but I've been doing it for 2 years now. I get off at midnight 2 nights a week and 4am all the other nights so working out for 2 hours when I get off still gets me in bed earlier than my regular long nights. But I am trying to work on my schedule, just kind of stuck at the moment unfortunately.


And thank you everyone for the info.
