Thanks for your input Lou. I have used creatine, and may give another shot. I also use beta alaline, seemed to help.

Not going heavy on all lifts every time you lift may be the way to go. Maybe something like you go heavy on sqts go lighter on the DL. Next week...

Do you get extra sore after not squatting for after a long break?

Sure makes sense that we can't go full bore every workout. Cycling the load seems to be the way to go.
