Default Burned Out

Anyone ever feel burned (weights seem heavier) out during a 3x5 or 5x5 routine. That is if you run two of them back to back. Weeks 6-10 are really rough and I only see a 5lb and very rarely a 10lb increase on my PR week. Doesn't feel worth it to run another 4 week loading phase if thats all im getting. Just comparing it to my first loading phase where i see almost a 10lb gain in all lifts. Thinking maybe its my diet where as im demanding more of my body too quickly therefore i need more calories. Just a thought

On my 3rd week of my second loading phase. Hit all my previous PR's but week 4 Im not feeling like i can push farther.
