cant sleep after intense workouts

one issue at a time

true true . . . but all the shit won't matter one bit if he's eating like a schoolgirl. LoL

First of all........Stop eating like a school girl, lol. Seriously, 1 can of tuna is absolutely horrendous PWO nutrition after limit squatting and deadlifting.

The thing is you just lift too close to bed time. Lifting gets you all mentally pumped up and releases endorphins and you're just too "amped up" to sleep so soon after a workout. If your schedule only permits training that close to bed, then you do what you have to do. I'd drink a quick PWO protein shake.....take a nice relaxing shower...then eat a proper meal (1 can of tuna is not a proper meal).....then wind down (read, play video games, jerk off, whatever relaxes you, lol) and go to bed.

Sometimes lifting keeps me up for a few hours, other times it puts me to sleep. No worries. I lift late (8pm) and go to bed shortly thereafter (10:30 or so). I hate it but that's life. I chug a big shake around 9, chug another shake at 9:45-10, and then ram down about 1000 calories at 10:30 or so. Then try to sleep. LoL

First off the can of tuna was not my pwo meal. My pwo meal consisted of a can of coke and 4 slices of white bread with jelly. Then 3 chicken breasts, broccoli and rice about 30 minutes later. I ate the can of tuna about 3 hours later. Its all that was in my cabinet aside from mustard. ran out of nonfat cottage. Its not stress. I sleep like a log all the time except when i have a badass workout. Im not thinking either. Its subconscious.

Oh boy. You need to visit the diet forum. LoL Unless of course you're not trying to gain muscle, in which case you don't have to worry about diet.
