Sorry if this has come up multiple times before but I can't find a search bar on Sugden. How do you all deload prior to a comp? What works for you etc...?

I have last heavyish session about 10 days out. A light run through 7 days out. Then some very very light work 3 or 4 days out to get some blood flowing.

if i'm on sunday as an example and using my normal M,W,T,F training days

the 3 week out mark is typically a high intensity, high volume week and toughest in my preparation.

2 weeks out

90%+ bench monday (13 days out). taper volume by half.
90%+ SQ/DL wed (11 days before). taper volume by half.

speed bench thu reduced to 4x3 @ 60-75%.
SQ fri a few with 5x2 @ 50-65%.

last week

75% bench monday (6 days out) work up over 3-4 singles, a few light assistance exercises
50% SQ/DL wednesday (4 days out) work up over 3-4 singles, no assistance now

50% bench thu (3 days out) few singles. zero assitance

I liberated a deload plan from a peaking routine AMH put up on here a while back. I ran it leading up to my last two comps and utterly loved it. I dont see me trying anything else in the forseeable future.

Assuming the comp is sunday:

Monday, 3 x 3 @ 80%. I used squat, deadlift and strict press. For a powerlifting meet id swap overhead with bench.

Wednesday, 3 x 3 @ 60%. Same exercises.

Friday, 3 x 3 @ 40%. Same exercises.


I also did a fair amount of mobility and stretching on the saturday morning.

Thanks guys. I'll give these a whirl over my future comps and see what works for me.

Hit openers 2 weeks out.
80% for triples maybe a week out.
60% for a single a few days out, maybe even 60kg per lift. Don t stretch too much if you're not used to it. I get DOMS from 50kg sldl off a box.
