Taking deload weeks (or only some days) is a rather overlooked practice in the world of fitness, despite the very beneficial impact scheduled deloads can have on our training and fitness longevity as well.
In this video, dr. Mike Israetel from Renaissance Periodization breaks down the most fundamental aspects regarding deload weeks, how to go about them, and why they play a key role in the long term fitness journey.

Be observant.
Maybe keep a journal. Reflect on feelings and experiences.
