Felt strong

Felt strong today. It showed on the results as I upped the weights on some exercises but got the same time or better! Well, except for the last exercise, overhead press. It basically stayed the same. I felt during that exercise, that chest and even legs were totally exhausted, and at least the chest got so fatigued (again) that I believe it impacted the overhead press negatively.
I should also note that today I ate a small portion of cooked food for breakfast (minced meat, coconut oily, creme fraishe, and a little bit of veggies in it), instead of my usual two boiled eggs. So perhaps that helped?
Perhaps I'll see less increase when I go back to eating eggs in the morning.
Or did my body adapt to the low carb intake? Can I still gain muscle while losing more fat?

It seems the last exercise (overhead press) is not making much progress. It's probably because it's the last exercise in the program. I might have to move it to be the first exercise. This is what is recommended, either by body by science or on www.baye.com.
