So this past week I've just been shitting out in my lifts. No energy, my numbers are down and it's mega frustrating because I've been steadily increasing everything as of late.
Have I hit a wall? And if so what's a way to mix it up, I don't do anything fancy. Just a 5x5 regiment. 
First thing to try in my book, is just take a little time off all together. It's an easy fix most of the time.
When guys hit the wall or are getting stale, I usually recommend 10 days off from all training.
Take off starting this coming Friday, and don't get back into the gym until a week from Monday.
So...Rest from Friday 01/02/15 - Sunday 01/11/15. Resume training on Monday the 12th. Rest means eat well, sleep well...Just chill.
BLAMMO!! I predict ne PR's.
TAKU
Taku -I hope I can survive that long, thanks for the advice.

Yeah I just had a week off the gym and I've come back feeling awesome. 
Funaki Masakatsu #1 -Pretty solid I think. I have chicken and some vegetables or fruit for lunch and dinner everyday. I have some junk food but not enough to be a problem.GnP Sonnen - So this past week I've just been shitting out in my lifts.

Im not going to let you get the satisfaction, buddeh ;)
But back on the subject, when I start back after the break should I mix up my routine as well?
I'm new to this so the last person to give advice but: lol
Have you looked at 5/3/1? The idea being you don't work balls out and have something in the tank percentage wise and hopefully will be able to progress your lifts for longer.

JJJ is having a real rough time on the OG these days... browsing his "I'm a 21 year old virgin" thread explains a great deal about him.
Sorry to not stay on topic, but this poor guy has been menacing many a thread and it trully seems like a cry for help in the midst of a panic attack.
