If you were doing a sensible diet then you should not notice a decrease in strength that quickly...

How much did you cut calories by?

I didn't loose any strength in a 16 week contest diet. You program is either not not very good or you are dieting improperly.

did you drop your cals and increase cardio at the same time ?

I finished a 10 week cut and lost a little strength after about 2 weeks but nothing MAJOR. I DID cut my cal's way down and I DID seriously increase my cardio but with the help from Emma I turned my diet around and I was actually gaining strength towards the end of my cut. Im guessing that this guy dropped the carbs WAY down, that will give you a seriously drained feeling. Post your diet/routine and let the experts analyze it bud, it will be worth your time.
