I switched from working out at home, to going back to the gym. I've done 10 workouts over the last 2 weeks at the gym, working out at home was a maintenance thing, dumbells, heavy bag, jogging. excited to get back into the gym full swing, I have kept records of my work outs and theyre identical for weight and reps, or actually going down in volume. I dont know if the going down in volume is a loss of motivation from feeling shitty about my lack of progress or what. I also feel like I have a hard time concentrating, I use to go in full of piss and vineager and it was oly me in there, even if I was surrounded by 100 people but now I catch myself pausing and looking around. and my worst habit I am noticing, I go to failure on all my sets but warm up yet, it seems the magic nuber I almost always come to is 12, which is a fuckin piss off because I use to do sets of 12 for everything years ago, and its got me thinking maybe I'm setting up this wall mentally for myself and prohibiting me from moving past that number. today I got 13's and 14's but still. today was my 3rd chest and back workout and I got the same fuckin numbers I did on my first day in. one thing I have always prided myself on is I'm a fast developer, 2 weeks in the gym I can be at my previous best condition ever but right now, I feel like I havent done shit. my girl see's its eating me up and she's trying to big me up cuz I can see some lats, chest and shoulders in the mirror but the numbers dont fuckin lie. I am so mad..my diet ha been pretty clean, I'm gettin 8 hrs every night and gallons of water. weird thing is I start to dread goin to the gym and start feelin tired around 4, an hor before I get there. I dont know what to fuckin think anymore, FUCK!!!!! maye I'm just bein too hard on myself too soon, I dont fuckin know
 
Yea...give it some time bro. I tell most people give it at least 4 weeks, AT LEAST when coming off maintenance of a lay off. Most people are too impatient and expecting results or gains after getting back at it too soon, consistency bro, just be consistent, KEEP GOIN!! rest and eat...you know it.
 
Whens the last time you took a break? After a few hard months straight i lose a lil bit of drive so i take a week off and come back ready to kick some ass
 
I think you're pushing yourself to hard, over training. It's impossible for anyone to make gains going to failure on every set, the body can't adequately recover. Try not going to failure and perhaps less volume for six weeks. I would bet you make gains.

Couldn't have said it better. It took me a while to realize how important rest was, but it really helps once you allow your self to
