And I've experienced it first hand. I looked into every other factor that was causing insomnia; caffeine, supplements, everyday life stress etc and the training is the culprit. I was training 4 days a week for years with Wednesdays and weekends off and my enthusiasm wants to continue to do so, but it's become evident to me that 3 non-consecutive days a week is what I need if I'm going to lift at the intensity I want to. That's why I'm doing the DC two-way and with higher reps as it's even better for my recovery.
Scientifically proven for me, every time that I jump into a 5x5, or 6x4 routine, my sleep is crap.
I usually suffer from insonmia and I control all variables, food, water, caffeine or DNP, but routine is indisputably a vital factor.
That's why I always train one day and rest the next, it's a sequence I use in all training systems. But sometimes I have to take 2 days off.
