TYLENOL® PM for Late Night Workouts & A Good Night Sleep
Hover over the TYLENOL® PM in the image below to shop or learn more!
Paul and I are very busy but we make ways to fit in gym time. A couple nights a week we take a boot camp class together. Other nights we are on the machines or lifting weights. Paul likes to get some cardio by shooting hoops with our teen. We are not competitive with each other; we are supportive of staying healthy and getting stronger together.
It is not very fun that we are both always in various stages of soreness, but that is how we know that we are challenging our bodies! Post work out soreness from exceeding fitness goals is a good sign of hard work, but coming home from the gym and trying to get a good night sleep is the real challenge. We’ve discovered TYLENOL® PM to help relieve our minor aches and pains while helping us fall asleep.
After a work out it is imperative to eat something healthy. We need protein to rebuild muscle. We need fresh fruits and veggies for fuel the rest of our bodies. I like to have ingredients for smoothie bowls on hand so we can put together something fun, delicious and refreshing!
Would you like to make a smoothie bowl? I would love to share our recipe with you.
In a blender puree:
- 2 scoops of protein powder
- 2 cups of baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup lowfat yogurt
- 1 cup of ice
- 1/2 banana
- 1 cup oats
- 2 cups water
Have more water (or milk) on hand and add a little at a time to the blender until the consistency of your smoothie is thick enough to eat with a spoon.
Pour into two bowls and top with ingredients like:
- almonds
- chia seeds
- fresh strawberries
- blueberries
- kiwi
- pineapple
- coconut
Now that the days are getting shorter, the challenge to get a good sleep is even more important. Paul and I can not afford to have even one restless night from muscle soreness after a workout. We want to make the most of the time that we do have during the day and not be too sore or wiped out to get to the gym! The way that we get a good night sleep without being interrupted by aches and pains is by taking TYLENOL® PM before bed.
Every strong work out, every healthy smoothie bowl and every restful night are important to Paul’s and my goals of living our best lives.
We buy our TYLENOL® PM at Walgreens in the “sleep solutions” aisle.

Smoothie bowls are one of my favorite treats! Adding the protein powder makes them such a fantastic post-workout snack. That post-workout soreness is such a great sign you are challenging your body but it does make it difficult to get to sleep at times. It’s wonderful the Tylenol PM does such a great job for you.

I’ve used Tylenol for years. Although I haven’t tried the Tylenol PM yet. By the way, I totally love the smoothie bowl ingredients. Thank you for the recipe.

I love making smoothie bowls especially during the spring and summer. Is it weird that I like the post workout soreness? Not so much that I can’t sleep, but you know what I mean 🙂

I love that you have this routine with your husband! It’s tough to get into a good routine with gym time while our youngest is still small but I’d love to eventually get to this. We just moved to a new home with a great neighborhood gym so there really is no excuse for us to not be exercising. #client

I love tylenol. I have migraines sometimes so this is a great way to get some relief. I’ve never tried pm though.

I have used Tylenol PM and can attest to how well it works. I feel so much better after a restful nights sleep.

I just started taking Tylenol (my doctor prescribed it) for pain – I seem to have a lot going on today
Jessica Bradshaw
So smart! I have a hard time sleeping sometimes because of muscle soreness from working out. What a great idea!

Those bowls seem so finger-licking and definitely worth trying, Jenny! Great way to use more Chia seeds in my diet. Excellent post!
