One thing I'd do is when you press "mark read" on a subforum to be returned to that subforum instead of the main forum. Right now it returns you to the main forum. I usually press "mark read" and then search for my log in the logs subforum but now it just pushes me back to the main forum.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: horrible squat progress questions

Why the heck do you eat so little anyway? Remember GOMAD? Doing half of GOMAD isn't going to be the end of the world. Neither is eating more as you're training HARD.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: horrible squat progress questions

So you're compounding lack of sleep, eating less and training harder altogether?
Well, good luck with that one.

lol
my thoughts exactly adarqui. I subscribe to what you wrote 100%.
In fact, I could say a thing or two to people in the gym but I don't want to become what I criticize so I shut the hell up.

You would've been better served doing RDLs or BSSs with dumbbells instead.

Of course lack of sleep is the GREATEST enemy of CNS power. It sounds to me like you're exhibiting overtraining symptoms. It could be just lack of sleep and not overtraining itself.
Here's the thing: if you're not resting/recovering well, you need to pay attention to the intensity part of your training. If you're not eating well, you need to pay attention to the volume part of your training IMO.
How can you be intense if you never completely recover your CNS in order to advance?
How can you build muscle if you never supply it enough nutrients?
If I were you I would consider sleeping as my workout. Basically instead of going to the gym my workout requires me to sleep 3 additional hours. Do that for a week or so with no exceptions and take a break that week from training if you want to. Like, focus completely on recovery.
Then continue to sleep well and start going to the gym. Start with a lower than usual weight using perfect form. I'm not sure what your routine looks like but you should start with something easy to follow like Starting Strength. It should work well for where you're at now.

163 by 95 if I remember right, 20 minutes after coming home from the gym.
138 by 65 and 140 by 67 ~10 minutes after taking Xanax.
brb Xanax
It could be anxiety-induced high blood pressure... not sure.
