I felt tired, so I tested my one rep maxes!

Lately I've been having trouble sleeping a full 8 hours on the nights of my workout days because
in order to eat most of my calories post workout, I end up eating a lot right before bed.
So I'm trying to shift my eating window up a few hours to correct the problem.

This day I was feeling pretty tired from lack of sleep. So I decided to take it easy and do
low volume. I started to get some energy after my warmup and my squats. So I ended up
testing out my one rep max on overhead press, and deadlift. It looks like I hit PRs on overhead press, and weighted chinups!

Charting my progress for the past 12 weeks

Intermittent Fasting Weeks 10 - 12

Here are my logs for the last week and a half or so. Wile still doing Intermittent Fasting I've found that if I move my carbs to pre workout, I can get some energy back and
get a few more reps on the heavy squats. Overall I've been going easy on the squats/deads because I have some weird soreness in my lower core/rear waist area. Its getting better but really slowly. Squats and dead lifts feel fine when I'm in the gym though. So I'm not sure if I should be worried or not.

I've still managed to increase the weight in pull-ups and dips. I even managed to get 17 pull-ups at body weight, which I think is a PR for me.

I also think I've hit the point where I won't loose anymore fat doing Intermittent Fasting unless I change my diet more or add cardio. My short term goal is still to get to %12
but my higher priority goal is still to gain strength and muscle.
