So now that I look at it I guess it is not that bad. These are just examples. I left out a few exercises. Anyway I'm thinking it could be Anabeta is requiring me to eat more calories and that is the reason why I lose strength on these two days. You see on my carb up I eat as much as I can really and the two workout days after that I'm fine as far as strength goes. Then on wed-sun I eat significantly less calories and of course only 30 carbs or less. I don't plan on upping my carbs ever on these days, that is just how my diet works. So I'm gonna stop the Anabeta on low carb days. Just going to take it on carb ups. I've done this before and switched back and fourth between taking it just on carb ups and then on both carb ups and low carb days. The difference now is I'm lifting much heavier than last year in which all I did was diet for the entire year. So calories/diet/supplements have to be manipulated differently for my changing goals. So the plan is to stop the anabeta today and only take it on carb ups for now. Another difference in workout days between tue-wed and fri-sat is that on friday and saturday I take 5 NRC Cabergolean pre-workout. I don't know but maybe that is making me tired. First things first though, eliminate Anabeta from low carb days.
