Loosing Strength ?!?!

I no longer have a work out partner due to him moving, so its kinda hard to lift heavy & get hella strong. I also just got off creatine to cleanse the system,unfortunatly lately I've been noticing that I think im loosing strength in my bench and incline dumbell exercises.I train chest on Mondays,Now I dont know if Im loosing strength because of the creatine, or because every other weekend Im Racin' Motocross, now that sort of exercise definatly fatigues my tris/chest. :unsure: :scratch: Any sugg?? Hop back on the creatine? Suggestions? Thanks Bros!!! and broettes'

moto-x will do it, maybe some mental also

You need to change your training program. If you are not cycling the weights in a 5x5 program(or something similar), you are not going to optimize your strength potential.

You could be on a program for months and get good gains, but then stop all together and even get weaker.

About the creatine, I'm sure that part is mental.

def back on the creatine..

Increasing calories/protein will also help.

Ya bro, I havent done the 5x5, Im going to research it.Mental, maybe,maybe not, I focus relatively hard, calories are up along with protein. Am I the only person that trains by himself ? (for now)

So heres one of the links I've looked into. http://www.joeskopec.com/five.html

Thats a cool little calculator, I do believe I'll bookmark it :)

This looks like a good place to start.

Ya I just bought some ISS- Saturate Creatine.

Could be psychological bro. I always lift heavier when someone is around to save me from my heavy lifts. meaning im more confident to lift VERY HEAVY if their is someone around to spot me. I guess its got somthing to do with my confidence.
