(for me) To break a plateau and the best way to avoid over training is to eat way more than I think I should eat. For me that basically means 100 gram protein shake at bedtime and a gigantic peanut butter sandwich. I try to eat 1000 calories before bed basically. Also, making sure to eat that much even on off days. If you can put yourself on track to gain one pound or more per week, you will not stall easily, perhaps not at all. This isn't reasonable forever of course. Unless you want to be really strong and chubby.
Sometimes I fantasize about having a personal chef who follows me around and force feeds me on request.
