This week is a deload week to help you better adapt to previous weeks of training before the next training block.

This week is the final week of the current training block, and you might have noticed that the schedule is somewhat different (including a full weekend off). The intent of the week is to reduce the overall training volume to allow you some additional room to recover from the previous weeks of training and to prepare for the upcoming training blocks.

Enjoy the additional time to rest, relax and do something outside the gym.

Avoid the temptation to add more work (especially this weekend, with back-to-back rest days). Your body and mind will thank you with more progress in the upcoming training if you have the patience now to let them recover.
