Buddha | The importance of deloads | 14-10-2015 @ 18:38 | |
Coached by deine Mutter Member 5887, 145 posts SQ 182, BP 115, DL 200497.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | This is a controversial question, does a deload impact performance? In american powerlifting, in the westside styled training(elitefts, Jim Wendler) there is often the necessity of deloads, that they are very important - is this true or just american bias? When you look to the more effective and more result based lifters in east europe you find practically no lifters who do the traditional deload(50%) the japanese powerlifters actually train without deloads and never stop training, they just rest if their is a injury. Sheiko lowers the % but still one time in 12 weeks, norwegians also don't deload. So the question is, do deloads result in greater strength or are they just a roided myth, that is popularized among american powerlifters? btw: i asked Sheiko, there will be a video, that adresses the topic. And Pozdeev says yes to deloads, but they are just "somewhat" 70, 80%- deloads. | ||

Member 4975, 58 posts | Imo... They're only important if you're overreaching enough to need them. They're probably best done by reducing volume rather than weight on the bar. For most people life throws up deloads often enough not to have to bother with planning them. | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5208 posts | I have seen a big difference when deloading. I like to deload after 6 weeks. I guess many more advanced lifters deload less. I never deloaded for years until the last few months. I am still weak, but have improved a lot this last while. | ||

Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts | You can't talk about deloads without discussing the entire plan. It's situational. Within the context of one plan, they'll be neccessary. Within the context of another they won't. What's more important is whether the plan makes sense and works within what we know about periodisation. HOW you accomplish that whole rest/work relationship isn't important, the fact you do is. | ||

no really Irish Member 1196, 5908 posts SQ 312, BP 230, DL 320862.0 kgs @ 114kgs UnEq | You should have lighter peroids of training in your plan on a regular basis. I don't think it should be discussed as a "Deload". More the start of a new accumulation phase or planned detraining after a peak. If you use an overreach or concentrated loading week then you generally need 2 weeks to realise the benefits 1st week with reduced volume and intensity next week with a slight increase. I think if your training plan leaves you physically in need of a deload week you are training with far too much intensity x volume and should look at your training closely. | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3348 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Alex76 said:Imo... They're only important if you're overreaching enough to need them. They're probably best done by reducing volume rather than weight on the bar. For most people life throws up deloads often enough not to have to bother with planning them. people deload too often because they've read some text calling for every 3rd or 4th week that was based on full-time elite bulgarian lifters doing 8 hour days of training at 'daily max' intensity. they apply this to their own stuff which is typically 2-3 sessions of mainly warming up and 2-3 top sets of squat/bench/dead, not realising 'deload week' in bulgaria was still more work than 3 months of theirs. | ||

It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | what will happen if you lift close to max every training session for me it works the best every year i take month or two full rest for ligaments and joints recovery and after come back im again close to my max, and it takes only a week or two to be in best shape again because my body remembers EVERY SESSION MAX TRAINING THIS IS REAL STRENGTH not peaking 1 or 2 times a year this is bulls**t | ||

Coached by deine Mutter Member 5887, 145 posts SQ 182, BP 115, DL 200497.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Well, first thank you. And actually could someone explain why there is "no need"? Or is here someone who is in scientific research and who can prove that deloads are just like donuts, make you fat, but taste good? This would be really great. | ||
