I am interested in hearing more about your strength training on this. Do you find that eating less slows your gains and PRs?

I'm sure it does, but I'm not a good enough strength trainer to really notice. I'd say I'm closer to an intermediate lifter than a beginner, but I'm not advanced enough to really notice a difference.

Time in the gym is my biggest blocker today, not what I ate.
