Your not eating the right things to recover properly

Try lifting in the morning

How old are you? What are your T level like? How much caffeine do you drink? Have you tried working out at a different time of day? How long are your workouts for? Have you seen a doctor? Gotten any blood work done?

Catnaps? Sometimes after I work out, I sleep for about 15 to 30 minutes and then I'm good for the rest of the day.

How long have you been on this regimen? What progress have you made?

Sounds lke you're just adjusting. Sleep more if you need, and if you cannot, scale back on the sport for a good balance until you get use to it. Impossible to tell if you're having a legitimate problem, or just wanting instant results.

Nobody becomes superman in a few weeks or even months. Sounds like you're overdoing it.

Common problems:

1) Lack of sleep/rest

2) Lack of food/protein

3) Not lifting hard enough

Sounds like your workouts may be high intensity every time you're in the gym. This is the best way to chokehold your gains through fatigue and cause injury. Or your diet isn't in check you don't seem confident about it.

I work a full time M-F day job, as well as 4 nights a week part time at a restaurant, and also have time to do Jim Wendler's 5/3/1 Monolith program - both the lifting and the conditioning as well as the entire diet.

Get out of here with your lazy excuses. It's all a matter of willpower and nothing more.

What about the food you eat and the hours you sleep?
