I find that recovery is very, very individual and there are a myriad of factors that go into it. And some of them are psychological and/or simply a matter of adaptation, while the others are not. So I find hard-programmed deload periods odd.
Of course, one might ask whether it makes sense to hard-program the training if there is a significant individual variation in it as well. A good question. I think this is one of the matters which comes into more focus as the trainee becomes more advanced, and the more advanced one becomes, the more individual the training and recovery becomes.
