How are you spacing out Days 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the program over the days of the week?
Are you using a large peri-workout recovery supplement? More importantly, why are you not gaining weight and is this diet related?...
That you feel spent after the workout and the day thereafter can just be b/c you've trained hard. As long as you recover by the next training day, which your strength gains suggest, this isn't a problem unless you just can't be productive as needed (otherwise) on that day.

Thanks for the reply Scott. Days are spaced so that I have 1 day rest between loading days, rest between upper loading and Lower MR day, then I do MR days back to back.
It may well be diet related. Peri workout nutrition is as follows.
30g protein and 45 g carbs pre workout
50 g hbcd with 15g's EAAS and BCAAS intra
80 grams of carbs and 40 grams protein post workout
60 grams of carbs and 30 grams of protein 2nd meal post workout
Maybe it is as simple as adding in some carbohydrates perI workout?
Not gaining strength absolutely every session, but for the most part numbers are rising.
