Workout was pretty good. Time between sets were kept to a minimum because I had to get in and out of the gym asap to make my basketball game on time. Because of timing, I had to dose my Cre-O2 and Cord 5 with my PWO shake. I know this wasn't ideal, but my workout just fell into the timeslot when I needed to take dosage.
On to the game. I was feeling ok after my workout (not to fatigued) but about 30 minutes before game time. I began to just get tired. I noticed in warm-ups before the game that I had no legs at all when jumping. I didn't think to much of it and figured the supp's and adrenaline would kick in and I would be fine. Once the game began, the sluggish feeling just didn't go away. It felt like a chore for me to run up and down the gym. I had no drive/motivation to do all the hustle plays that I'm accustomed to, like rebounding, diving for the loose balls, playing good defense. I was basically just an extra body on the floor. I got fed up with how I was playing and took myself out of the game. I did play a few more minutes in the 2nd half but still wasn't feeling any different, so again, I let someone else play for me. I probably watched 1/2 of the game on the bench, when I'm accustomed to playing 80-90% of the game.
Possible reasons for sluggishness
1. The entire day my stomach was a little off. I had a nausea feeling all day. I never threw up or anything, but I felt like I could at any point.
2. The workout was to close to playing time. It was roughly 2 hours apart from my workout to my game. It very well could have been overtraining.
3. I took the supp's with food when it calls to take without food.
4. I could have just had an off night.
I'm guessing my performance was a combo of all 4 items. Hopefully tonights game will go a lot better.
