What I have done with his comp prep is deload after every 4 week training cycle just so we have no chance of over-training - the basic breakdown has been this:
- Albury comp
- Week off
- #29 - 4 weeks
- Deload
- #37 - 4 weeks
- Deload
- 5 week prep program
Joel,
There's no need to run deload weeks following a prep cycle, week four in the prep cycle is generally a lower volume week in preperation for the skills eval in week 1 of the comp cycle. So if you're running prep cycles back to back you've essentially got two consecutive weeks that are lower volume (week 4 of prep 1 and week 1 of prep 2). You also need to be cautious of which prep cycles you run consecutively.
Cheers
