Hello,
Basically, when things start to get good at the gym - increasing weight, etc... everything else in life start to get affected because of the fatigue of training.
Right after the training is the worst: sleepy, lethargy and tired. My job requires creativity. Creativity + fatigue = nothing done. When I lay off training for some reason, my productivity goes to the roof, so this is getting to the point that soon I will have to choose between weight training and work (And I don't want to).
Some things to consider
190lb
13% BF
800mg test bulk cycle, but this always happened to me, since I was a natural. I start get heavy at the gym and everything else start to decay.
4000kcals a day, plenty of protein.
Taking Opti-men just to be sure
Good sleep. I work at home-office and get at least 8 hours of sleepy a day.
I don't abuse stimulants. Just taking some coffe before working out
Training:
5 day split, each muscle once a week. About 4 or 5 exercises for each. I don't want to bore you guys listing everything I do at the gym, what I can tell is that I don't do anything crazy. I do 3 to 4 sets, 6 to 8 reps. Do the most famous compounds exercises and put a little isolator here and there.
Should I decrease volume ? Choose a split with less days ?
What about specific vitamins, minerals or something else I could take to help with this matter ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. I'm really starting to get really nervous about this...
