Always read what it says on the bottle about dosing. Remember, some people use it for bodybuilding purposes because it dilates and relaxes the arteries, but it also has an effect of lowering blood pressure for the same reason. The directions might or might not be for your intended purpose. There should be some good info out there about dosing L-Arginine for lowering blood pressure.
Oh, and if you're not getting your 8 hours of sleep (especially being that you lift), the sleep deprivation will undoubtedly raise your BP. Be in bed by 11, you're good to go.
