    Today's lucky number is: 66

    Brought to you by the volume master DaveGMB

    Your not supposed to destroy yourself with volume on deload. Even though it's hard not to I know.

    Ha yeah I did think it looked odd that number popping up so often!

    I can't help the volume, plenty of time to deload when I'm dead!

    See you can do 10 rep deads.

    But I agree on how it sucks and takes willpower to keep from just throwing some more weight on. But deload does work even though I hate it.

    So do you have a plan on how many round of 5/3/1 your going to do?

    Deloads have their purpose. We all know and hate it, but it's necessary.

    I still prefer taking a week off to deloading. The temptation to lift heavy is always there when i'm in the gym. Better to get out of there altogether, haha.
