Think it is some of that Guiness still in there somewhere 
If and when I get to 187 (85 kg) or something like that, I’ll have a look and decide if I have to dial back a bit.
Fat kids burn a lot of fat fast and slams on muscles even faster.

Well i hope you get to 85 without too much trouble man. Gaining weight can be good or it can suck.
Haha! I wish i wasn’t so inactive most of my life. I just played videogames and slacked off. Up until i was 14 i never exercised much.
haha it sucks, for me at least. But I think at least some of the 5 kg - 10 lbs I’ve gained is muscles.
I did absolutely nothing when I was a kid. Started doing a bit when i applied for academy when I was 23-24 something like that. Before that it was beer and party :-).
This explains a lot. 
I started playing soccer (I’ll stick with my American terms) when I was like three years old and continued playing sports most of the year until college…where I only played one sport for the entire year. I believe sports gave me a great base from which to build once I finally started hitting the gym. I’m not a head-turner or monster by any means but I’m above average compared to my 33 year old peers. I think having some success in the gym in high school helped me to enjoy it and adopt it as a hobby. It’s only natural to like things at which you’re good.

An average workout. One week to deload, looking forward to it.
I am a bit worn down at the moment.
Thinking 6 weeks between deloads is to long time.
Playing around with something like 4 weeks Wendler with the last week being TM for amrap or maybe 5 singles.
