I have came back from a layoff from training and now just finished up 3 weeks of training where I quickly went from about 10 reps for a week to 5 reps for 2 weeks increasing load each workout by about 5% and going to failure each workout on the last set.
My strength gains have now slowed downed or stopped but I am strongly suspecting this is simply due to CNS fatigue and overtraining as I have been going to failure every 2nd day this week without 2 days break on weekends.
From what I have read I should now start SD but I have doubts as I believe I still have a lot of growth potential in the next 2 months if I just give my CNS a break. I dont believe my muscles are conditioned and represent the sensitivity more of someone on a light AAS cycle.
I am wondering if I should skip SD and let the submaxial workouts be the break for my CNS or if I should skip 15s or maybe just do 1 week of 15s.
