TRIED AND TRUE: SLEEP EDITION

Everything I use to get a great night's sleep and why

OVERVIEW:

Tried and True is a series I have put together to share what I tested and use daily.

This can be clothing, gear, supplements, apps, and more.

KEY NOTE: I have a career in real estate investment, and fitness/mental health is a passion of mine. I will only give guidance on what I use daily, regardless of whether I work with them or not. I want to be transparent. Not everything I use I work with.

Let’s dive in:

Sleep is when your body and brain repair, reset, and regulate everything from memory and mood to hormones and immune function. Even one night of poor sleep can disrupt glucose metabolism, stress responses, and mental clarity—so consistent, quality sleep is essential for high-performance output.

I can train hard daily when I log 7-9 hours of sleep. I need at least 8 hours of sleep to train hard and work all day, while being sharp, clear, and energetic. Plus, when I lived life with quality sleep, my whole life changed: Less anxiety, stress, and more energy.

1. MOMENTUS ELITE SLEEP

Elite Sleep from Momentous is a powerful tool to support this. It combines magnesium L-threonate, apigenin, and L-theanine—clinically backed ingredients that promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve deep, restorative sleep without grogginess. It helps you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up sharper.

The suggested dose is 2 capsules. I take 1 capsule at night, and it does the trick just fine for me. I actually do not sleep as well when I take 2 capsules.
