So for context, while I have exams on I've been eating like shit (ton of sugar and just slop) for the past couple weeks. I feel like a fatass and my muscles were extremely sore from not stretching before I worked out. Today (about 4 days break from the gym) I lifted at home for the first time in ages since I just got new plates. I was able to rep 10kg more than my pr 5 times on bench??? I felt insane because the past few weeks I'd been eating healthy and been hardly able to lift anything. Not to mention I'm looking a shit ton more muscular but still haven't lost some fat (obv from my shit diet.) Why is this?

Just doing to much volume in the gym
 
to much training or you don't consume enough carbs when you're eating healthy
