Problem recovering?
Running the 4 day Medium load on the app. My maxes are 630 squat, 345 bench, and 660 deadlift at 258lb. When it comes to the final month or two, you're supposed to hit 105% of your max and then a month after that, hit your previous max for two singles. The problem with this is that it's becoming increasingly hard to recover week to week. I had this issue before and I went to a lower load program but it appears that there isn't any variation to the competition exercises and its overall higher in intensity which I'm not sure is a good idea. Has anyone had this problem before or resolved it? I feel like I'm running into a wall and can't progress.

Have you tried a 3 day program?

Maybe try to put more emphasis on recovery? Bit of stretching after training, sauna, proper sleep, massage etc. (ofcourse you might be doing them already, then please ignore)

Admittedly I have not. I might end up going in that direction, or looking at the different loading schemes and seeing if I can use those to manipulate the program

I have been doing all of those minus the sauna. Granted, I am a full time student at uni and I work a physical job so those are definite factors affecting my recovery but it just seems like my squat affects my deadlift recovery and vice versa.

Re: Problem recovering?
Did you already try eating more? Maybe you just need a solid 500 kcals more per day?
