Weightlifting & Exercise - pre workout nap


Expert: Jerry Goodwin - 7/5/2009

Question

Hi, Jerry

is a pre workout nap of say 2 hrs ok?

thanks,

John K.

Answer
Hi John,

Yes,it should be fine in most cases. It may even make your workouts better because you will start out well rested.

Here is a forum that talks about this very thing. You can see that for the most part they agree that a nap could actually be good. I agree also.
