This maybe a little long winded but I'd like for people to understand where I am before they respond to my question. Some may know I did a log for Hipo from October until January. I put on about 20lbs and hit all of my strength goals I set for myself. My bloods came back shitty unfortunately but I've been thinking about that and will up my aromasin intake to try to better control my estrogen levels. During that cycle all the way through last week, I dedicated myself to going to the gym 7 days a week. I do a cycle once a year and there's no way I'm wasting the impact of AAS by missing a day. For the most part....I've done that unless circumstances lead to missing a day.
I also quietly dedicated myself to really dieting well for the whole year. I decided to go low carb and its going really well. I went the first 6 weeks of the year without a cheat day at all.....with plans of coming off for the Super Bowl. I executed that plan and for the most part have been pretty good with the diet. Life certainly gets in the way but one day hasn't led to weeks of shitty eating. That has led to me going from 270 at the end of my cycle to getting as low as 250. I currently sit at 260...which was a huge surprise because a few people at the gym have commented on how lean I'm looking. I know scale isn't whole story so I'm not that worried.
The same day I weighed in, I went to the gym for my cardio day. I went on the elliptical for about 5 minutes and wasn't feeling it. I went less impact and walked...barely did 15 minutes...just wasn't feeling it....feet were hurting....no motivation. Got off, did some abs...again, no motivation. Never felt like this but I'm pretty certain its over training. Decided after that I need to give myself the weekends off (even though that was going to happen in a month due to work) to give myself some recovery time.
Now you have the whole picture. Any chance my over training may have stalled weight loss? Just curious on thoughts.
