How Often You Actually Deload?
I’ve been going non-stop for months, no rest week. Feel cooked but don’t wanna lose momentum. How do you plan deloads without feeling lazy?

Bro if you feel cooked, that’s your sign right there. Deload isn’t being lazy.

I usually deload every 6–8 weeks. I just drop the weight and volume for a few days and it actually helps me come back stronger.

You don’t have to stop training completely, just go lighter for a week. Keeps you moving without burning out.
Re: How Often You Actually Deload?
Think of it as recovery, not time off. Your body needs that reset to grow.

I ignored deloads before and ended up with small injuries and stalled lifts. Once I started taking them, progress picked back up again.

Feels weird at first but it works bro.
Re: How Often You Actually Deload?
Got it… I’ve probably been overdoing it. Gonna try a deload this week and see how it goes 👍
