started my third mesocycle this week (after basically taking all of last week off), and feeling amazing... hitting PRs left and right

If you've been plateauing a lot, take a full week off, eat your normal macros, and you may see some nice results when you get back to the gym

This is so true — It feels counterintuitive to take a week off but SO good for the gains. I had my deload week a couple weeks ago and did very little activity for 8 days but ate the same. Came back stronger 🙌🏻
