Latley I've had symptoms of overtraining, insomnia, lack of energy, slight dehydration. But i don't think im overtraining. It'll all started after i decided to really bulk and just took cardio out of the routine, the next week i thought i was gettin sick cause i just felt sluggish in the weight room. That was about 2 weeks ago and now i cant sleep at night when I'm tired and I stay up all night till I just about pass out at 8am then i only sleep for 5-6 hours if I can. I'm on about week six of a 5x5 routine and have seen some good gains in size and strength,and Ive gained about 15lbs, but since the insomnia started i just cant a good lift in.
Heres my routine
Mon. Chest- bench 5x5 incline db bench 2x8-10 db flys 2x8-10, dips 2x8-10
Tues. Back and Shoulders- Shoulder press 5x5, bb rows 5x5, standing bb rows 2x8-10, sitting cable rows 2x8-10, pull downs 2x8-10, lat raises supersetted with "bat wing things( i dont know what there called, but its kinda like your flapping your wings)
Wed. Power CLeans 5x5 then some core work back curls and abs
Thurs Arms- standing bb curls 5x5, cg bench 5x5, skull crushers 2x8-10, cable curls 2x8-10, tricep pull downs 2x8-10, weighted dips 2x8-10
Fri. Legs- Squats 5x5, leg extensions 2-8x10, leg curls 2-8x10s, calves
It just feels like im about to get sick but its been like 2.5 weeks and I havent gotten sick
