Since natural cortisol levels peak around 8am you could also just work out in the morning :)
 
It's perfectly normal that cortisol levels rise post workout. It doesn't mean you will shrivel up and lose all of your muscle. People tend to over think things, and everything in the world is catabolic, which is far from the truth. As long as you do the right things to keep protein synthesis working post workout ( food, whey, BCAAs, etc...) you will not have anything to worry about.

Very true. We tend to over think every aspect of bodybuilding to the point where it can drive you crazy if you let it. Keep the body fueled with macro nutrients frequently and lift weights. Something good is bound to happen ;)
 
Not to mention that cortisol spikes trigger gh spikes. This is why your gh is highest post workout, due to the massive cortisol spike from the stress put on the muscles, and in your sleep (due to cortisol spiking highest at 8pm)
 
Okay sounds good guys , just wanted to make sure... Thanks for the replies... And when researching it I came across some morons. There suggestions were to take some type of painkiller bc that blocks cortisol. Apparently some pros use this, but fuck that. I read ib profin stops protien synthesis as it is, and we all kno that shits no good for liver and kidneys, especially on cycle....
 
pain killers are a bigger killer than hardcore drugs... i really don't recommend using them in any way if you can avoid it...
