Why? Ask yourself, what's your goal?
If you want to get stronger faster, you need to reevaluate expectations. Adding 5 lbs to a lift 3x/week is insanely fast as it is, something you'll never even dream of doing when you see what your progress looks like a year from now.
If you want to burn more calories, do some lighter intensity cardio so you don't interfere with the lifting.
If you think*** you're losing muscle, re-evaluate your protein intake, calorie intake, and weight loss progression.
