Gender:  |  Gday guys. I have skipped a volume day because I was exausted. I will resume training on the recovery day. On my PR day and the next Volume day should I try and push forward or should I drop everything back 2.5kg. Then work back up.???? Thanks Guys. Marv. |

Gender: | Hey Ross, Good question. I guess I will see how I feel on PR day. If I feel good I will go for it. If not I will set things back a week or two. I guess I am interested to know how skipping a volume day has effected others when things were really getting tough. Did the extra recovery make you stronger or is it wiser to drop the weights back a little. Marv. |

Gender: | Hey Hopper. It has been about 21 weeks now. My ass is huge from all the Squats haha. I am not 100% sure what I will do next. I will probably give the Texas Method another go. I have started watching the WestSide seminar. That has given me some ideas. Marv. |

Gender: | If its the same seminar I saw its very interesting.I am particularly interested in the DE method and have been reading up as much as I can on westside training.Maybe some speed work would get the progress moving again? saying that 21 weeks is a long time on a routine,so a deload might be the way to go.Either way Ill be following your progress. Cheers Mate |
