Your progression is the reason you aren't gaining. You shouldn't be failing after a week or two. Your body isn't growing because you're not giving it the right stimulus. There's a concept called PROGRESSIVE overload. You're just overloading without giving much thought to progress. It's like if you were to walk up to the back of a car that you can't pick up and trying to pick it up every day. You'll never be able to pick it up if that's your approach. You should have your progression set up so you hit new numbers every 4-5 weeks in your case.
Eat food like Cradler said. Lots of protein. Read the stickies in the nutrition forum.
