Limbs Falling Asleep

When ever I get around 250+ lbs I will wake up every night to find my limbs fell asleep, sometimes its so bad both my arms wont work and I have to flop around to turn over. Does anyone else experience this or have any solutions? Its starting to ruin my quality of sleep, being it wakes me up 3 or more times a night. thanks!
 
I have this same issue. I noticed that for me it seems like its related to my hgh use so if I cut out hgh it stopped but I have learned to sleep flat on my back its the only way I can sleep through the night. Im starting to get another problem from this though. My shoulders are cut up now from the primo run im on that the weight of my shoulders pulling backwards from laying flat on my back is giving me pain in the mourning in my shoulder joints. I solved one problem and created another.
Try laying flat on your back it takes time to get used to especially if you’re used to sleeping on your side. It should help you with the numbness in the arms.
I remember those nights waking up and my arm would be completely dead almost like I dislocated my shoulder. I hate when the blood starts to flow back in. The feeling is so weird lol
 
yeah man i hate it. never thought about it having to do with bodyweight but it’s usually the reason for most problems. gh also makes the numbness in hands and wrists worse while sleeping for me but it slowly got better when i came off for a month. sitting around 260-265
 
I’m only 182 @UNITED and I get it all the time. I’m pretty sure it has to do with impinging nerves in the shoulder based off how I sleep on my side. I can never fall asleep flat on my back and arms at side. I’m always on my side or chest with arms above my head, which is bad for nerves and stuff. Chiro has told me that’s def what causes.

Edit: sorry @Bigmurph responded before reading yours. Pretty much just reiterated what you said 😂

I have that problem but mine is def from gh. I sleep on my back with a cpap machine and wake up many times during the night with hands so numb its painful. I guess its part of the game we play but i wish there was something to do to make it go away. Im only using 4iu of gh but these kits are so strong the sides are ridic!!
 
Same here mine is majority GH but when I do get around 250 my quality of sleep sucks bad. Now that I’m back down to 220s it’s been better. My right arm is always asleep during fasted cardio lol
 
Anyone figure out the magic formula ?? The last couple of nights I’ve been having this issue, where I wake up needing to flop my arms like a fucking inflatable man because my arms are asleep. I’m not pinning shoulders and neither am I Currently on gh But I am in the 230s.
 
I had this issue when starting test cycle but it went away. I had it real bad when running lgd and mk677 together. Hell
My hands would just go numb when Would be sitting
 
Are you stretching at all? Lacrosse ball on the floor, really digs into the muscle, hurts like a mofo but gets better as they loosen, my calves get so tight that it affects my knees, they can get rock hard, and painful, magnesium every night before bed, and really dig into the muscle with something to loosen it up, takes a bit, but it does get better.
 
It helped with recovery but I never got sleep benefits from it. Not worth the price for me. May try hgh at some point next year to see how that is
 
I don’t really stretch, beside the warm up movement on whatever I’m hitting that day so I’m gonna try and add more stretching. As far as my estrogen, I keep it on check with my daily proviron. I’m doing bloods halfway through my cycle so I’ll double check that the proviron is doing it’s job on paper too but physically the estrogen feels controlled. The current Covid Situation is making it a hassle to get bloods done here in Cali so that’s another issue ima have to work around.
 
A good massage therapist can do wonders too. If I’m feeling extra tight I’ll go in and feel so much better when done, takes me about 3-4 appts at 1 a week to really get everything loose. Then don’t really need it for another 3 or 4 months.
 
Since starting gh about 2 months ago I get the numbness too, mostly in my right arm. Strangely though, it only happens when I’m laying down. Does anybody know why?
I would think that it would happen even when standing or sitting if just from gh. It wakes me up at night because it is incredibly painful, and it will continue to hurt until I sit up
