ZMA is the shit
Does anyone else here take it? Its Zinc, Magnesium, and B6. I take it right before bed and I get the best sleep ever. Hell, I've even had control of my dreams.

Waking up is super easy and overall I feel more like a man. Check it out if you.haven't already.

Although I do have to say that when I took it in college it DID do something to my sleep (not muscles though). I would go to sleep and wake up super early and I'd be wide wide awake. I had lots of dreams too. It's kind of weird.

And it WASN'T placebo because I didn't even know it was known to mess with sleep at the time (it was right when ZMA came out and I took it for the claimed test upping effects). The effect on sleep was very noticeable and it definitely wasn't a placebo. It took me a few weeks to draw a connection to what was messing with my sleep and it stopped when the ZMA ran out.

This sounds similar to my experiences with melatonin, better sleep, more vivid dreams. How do the 2 differ?

Melatonin is a hormone.

ZMA is a combo of Zinc, Magnesium, and B6.

FYI - more than half of Americans don't get enough Magnesium, so that's probably what's causing the effect.

How long have you been training for continuously to this point? Any other PED's besides caffeine?

One study had "evidence" that it increased testosterone, but that study was done by ZMA creator, Victor Conte of BALCO infamy. The study has been discredited and has never been duplicated.
But the placebo effect is often just as real for those who feel it. If you believe it's giving you better sleep, then enjoy. Only thing getting hurt is your wallet.
It would only make you "feel more manly" if you were already deficient in zinc. Then yes, it would help raise natural test levels.

But either way, you're wrong.

A 1200 total? I hope you're 130 pounds.

Sleep is the most important factor in recovery. You may can pull off a decent training session here or there with lack of sleep, but without a lot of solid sleep growth will be inhibited.
