This was my first Deload Week during the new Renaissance Periodization Hypertrophy program. It was also the first Deload Week that I actually wanted to come. Volume was getting high and I was actually looking forward to a deload. I actually felt that the deload would help me and I didn't get super antsy the first few days.
