If you need to drop weight fast while keeping muscle Lyle McDonald "rapid fat loss" is the way to go. It's a cheap book.
That sort of dieting is not compatible with lots of exercise / hard exercise, but two weeks is probably enough to drop that 6 lbs.
Or carb cycle and eat just lean protein / veg on not training days. Seems you do that already :)
Either way nearly nobody feels their strongest when dieting that's quite normal.

Thanks for that. I did wonder is that was an option.
Currently, I am in a rush to lose 6 lbs (squash related) and I have not been eating much. I know this is a mistake but I am trying to lose it quickly. If I can drop the weight, I will increase my intake as I will be expending more energy through training etc.
I am back on the weights and I am struggling, probably due to the lack of food. If I can drop the weight and then increase intake, I am hoping the weights will improve. The reduction in intake may be a good option for me on my work days - when training is limited and I can increase intake on my training days.
Thanks - have a great weekend!
