I have the same problem. I do for example my first set of benches with 55 kg and do 10 reps. Then my 2nd set is around 5 reps after a 45s break.

After a lay off, the higher the rep range youre testing the bigger the drop off in many athletes. Lower rep sets and max strength will be closer to the previous levels in alot of athletes but strength endurance tends to drop off the quickest. Once he gets back into it his strength endurance should go back up fairly quickly as well, quick to leave is usually quick to come back and slow to leave is usually slow to come back as well.

Makes good sense. Thank you for your input. I have a plan.

I was just wondering if someone could think of something else. I have thought of diet, but he eats well.

I would say it's medical. Maybe candida or thyroid problems which can cause extreme fatigue.

Regardless, millions of people have great, healthy diets, they still get sick.

Take candida for example. Overdose on fresh fruit (sugar), you will get candida. Cruciferous vegetables can cause thyroid troubles.
