Hi.
So I read an article in a magazine about a professional fitness-bodybuilder who reduced his training volume and training frequency and thereby became bigger and stronger according to himself. He is seemingly the best in his field in my country.
I was just curious about this idea for the rest of us. Many of us are training according to anti-glycolytic principles, but still, more volume is always more demanding than less volume (all else being equal). I was just wondering about how to know if your training too much, or a tiny bit too much, and that you could actually get better results if you trained less.
I am the kind of person who would like to train every day, but now I think that I might have gotten better results if I had tried to restrain myself.
I am sometimes wondering how many off-days I should have to get optimal results.
Have other people experimented with training less and achieved better results ?
Or maybe the opposite.
