maybe overtraining.. let your muscles get 3-5 days rest.. yea make sure to get the 8 hours of sleep. also need 1-1.5 grams per lb. of body weight.

well after a hardcore workout your muscles need calories to revive... Eating clean is good but sometimes you need some extra calories... So dont be afraid to dig in to those cupcakes everyonce in a while
