added comments:
-always get my sleep
-dont drink or smoke
-used to have problems commiting to the above everyday but have found an easy solution around it, and it works (bought my own fridge for my bedroom, preparing meals 1 meal ahead at all times)
-tend to skip sandbag ggp more often than i should 
-bodyweight increases fall to around 0.5-1kg every 2-3 weeks (havent noticed any real fat gain thus far)
questions:
-some of my lifts following the starting strength routine have begun to stall, military press and bench press have stalled completely (been 2 workouts of the same weight and reps) and deadlifts-although i get 5 reps, my back begins to round on the final rep. what should i do with the lifts im stalling on?
-im looking to add in some sprints once a week on an off day, simply because ive become a little sluggish and slow since high school. would these effect my lifting performance in any negative way?
-feel free to comment on any changes you think would be beneficial in terms of diet or training!
got that final rep up pats self on back hoping something similar will happen for bench come monday!
