At the moment I have dropped 2lbs in 2 weeks, which is perfect. Only problem is I am feeling very tired when it comes to working out. Strength is going down and feel very lethargic. I think its because the ECA tends to wear off about the same time and I have a crash. Do you think I need to add some post work out carbs?

Add the ECA in a little closer to your workout if you want. Depending on your protein shakes (are they low carb?), you may be on a low carb/keto type diet. If so, a tired feeling is a common side to that type of diet.

Yeah they are very low carb. Pure Protein by USN.

Thinking of upping the ECA dosage to 2 a day one in the morning and one before training.
