Again a contradiction.
"I'm not gaining as much strength as I want."
"Well then perhaps you should change your routine."
"Nah I don't want to change my routine."
"Then your strength won't improve."
"Oh but it is improving enough."
Until you resolve these contradictions in what you're telling us, there's nothing we can say or do for you. These words, along with your changing your workout every 6-8 weeks, show a very muddled approach to things. Typically those with muddled approaches go only so far and then get stuck. They then ask others for help, reject the help offered, and stay stuck.
Good-bye.
I don't see why the drain can't just keep doing what he's doing.
If you're getting results you're satisfied with, and enjoying your training, then no need to change anything.
A change may hurt your results if you don't enjoy that style of training.
Your current routine is obviously working for you as already stated.
You're always going to have high and low energy days, nobody's life is perfectly stable all the time.
Maybe thats why your workouts feel easier some days and harder on others.
I love this forum, I really do. But this thread has gotten totally out of hand. The op was wondering whether his down days were due to overtraining or not. That was it!
To turn it into a huge thread about hypertrophy v strength based routines is another example of the sheep mentality that has overtaken the site recently.
There is more than one way to skin a cat guys. I dont know Drain, but I don't think he cares whether he deads 250kg or not, he wants to look good in a muscle shirt, and he does (no homo). Good on him. I'm sure there's plenty of guys on here would be happy to have his build.
More encouragement, less elitist brainwashing.
Well done Drain, keep at it.
I don't think any of us have tried to discourage him from lifting. Some of us have suggested that if he wishes to achieve certain things, then he should lift differently. If he is indifferent to his results he can lift however he likes.A good forum will discuss and share experience and encourage others to lift.
Damn you silverback, for making me get the dictionary out.
Sorry buddy.
seriously this forum sucks. I post some shit asking a few thing's and i get experted about everything. even though what im doing is working..
i didnt ask for peoples advice about workouts? hahahaha
i just got a bunch of theory to say what i was doing was wrong.
yet as i said its working. I just asked to make my workouts more intense.
read the first posts.
the whole time i said the same thing. What im doing is working.
Im big, im getting leaner and getting stronger.
All i wanted to know was about drop sets, supersets etc extra's people do to make workouts more intense etc
