Deload Weeks Under New Interface?

Sorry if already asked somewhere else, but I could not easily find anything: are there deload weeks under the new interface?  I tried to Edit Workout but did not see anything.  I remember the old system had deload weeks after Foundation One once that interface changed, but I don't see anything here.  Thanks.

No there are no automatic deload weeks, although you have the option of manually adjusting your programming to insert one.

What I have discovered over the years is that the vast majority of beginners either do not work hard enough or miss too many workouts to make an automatic deload week necessary.

Good Sir,

How will we know when a deload week should be added?

Residual joint pain?

Alessandro Mainente

Nope, less progress on strength. when joint pain occurs is too late.
