Look—
you can have the deadlift of a demigod,
the macros of a monk,
and a supplement stack that costs more than rent…

…but if you’re sleeping like a cracked-out bat under a tanning bed,
your recovery’s DOA, brosefus.

That’s the dirty secret the grind-broZ won’t admit:
​You don’t grow in the gym.​
You grow when you flatline into sleep paralysis and your body quietly rebuilds itself like a Terminator charging in a cryo-pod.

And guess what?
A huge key is to shut down properly which can't happen if your nervous system’s stuck in Windows XP reboot mode with the spinning wheel of suck.
Caffeine, blue light, and existential dread keeping the hamster wheel spinning.

...but there is hope!

The maniacs at Switch Supplements built the solution:
the Shutdown Mask — for those who treat sleep like a performance sport.

Here’s the rundown:

• Zero light leakage​
  Not “kinda dark.”
  I mean make black-holes jealous dark. Melatonin floods your brain like a chemical lullaby.
• No eye squish​
  Contoured fit = no retina compression PRs at 2 AM.
• Cool fabric​
  Won’t turn your face into a swampy jockstrap by 3 AM.
• Synergy stack: Pair it with my nightly Killswitch Sleep cocoa—
  Magnesium + GABA + Tart Cherry + Theobromine =
  ​your nervous system gently faceplants into oblivion.

I started tracking it on my Oura Ring (because, duh data),
and deep sleep jumped 20-30% overnight.
​
I did a consult call last week and the client raved about how his sleep is so much better now using Killswitch before bed and he sleeps like a sedated rhino. Ok, I made up that last part, but he was stoked about his sleep.

Here’s the kicker:

For a hot minute—
Switch is tossing in the Shutdown Mask FREE with your Killswitch Sleep subscription order.

Yeah, free.
As in “no extra cash, just extra recovery.”

But don’t delay as Tomer there messaged me to say that they are running out.
​
Once they’re gone, you’re back to wrapping your head in a gym towel like a blackout mummy.
Grab it here before it vanishes into the night:

Much love, sweet dreams, and fewer 3 AM existential crises,
Dr. Mike

PS — Yeah, it’s an affiliate link. It works. My wife harasses me when we run out. That’s data enough. hahah
