Hi I’m Ryan, and am an 18 year old powerlifter. Coming from a football strength training background, our coach emphasized having a “deload” week before our max out week to give our body and central nervous system a rest. Based on a couple years of doing this, I’ve noticed that it does have benefits going into max week, but is it necessary if you taper? Should I taper down my training volume leading up to my meet, or continue to use a “deload” week to reset my body?

Deloaded week is a taper bro

[@tonyteh]

what about tapering for older athletes?

Just thought about this and it might be more work than you want to do but. Is it possible to turn these into a CSCS playlist?

[@TheMovementSystem]

I actually have a comprehensive CSCS study course with videos that go chapter by chapter through the book on www.themovementsystem.com. That's the best option for studying. The KZbin videos just cover a few topics here and there. The course is a full study system.

So during a taper the weight we move remains the same?

Or increases slightly
