Can you overtrain without being sore?
Hey,
I train 6 times a week doing a push pull leg split 2x a week, for over a year now. I have been at a platue for quite some time. I push almost every set to failure and i also inplement dropsets (maybe not beneficial, but i like doing it). And i never get sore even though i train to failure almost all the time. I feel like i get enough sleep (8 hours) and i eat decent (could be better). Is there a possibility that my gains and strenght progress is hurting because i am training to much? Maybe my body doesnt have enough time to recover? Or should i be fine as long as i dont get sore? Thanks for the help guys :)
Since a lot of you have been asking about my program:
I do most compound exercises 3x8 and single join exercises either 3x12 or 3x15 depending on the intensety of the workout. I do this split 2 times a week.
| Push, chest tricep delts | Pull, biceps, back | Legs legs, abs, arms |
|---|---|---|
| Bench Press, Dumbell overhead press, Dumbell press, Skull crusher, Dumbbell lateral raise, close grip bench press, | Pull Up, Deadlift, Barbell curl, Barbell row, Dumbell curl, Shrug, | Squat, Calf Raises, Hip thrust, Abb exercises, Pronated forearm exercise, supinated forearm exercise, |
A litle more information since i havnt provided enough info:
i am 15, i have been training for 3 years. I devoloped an actual good physique imo, (i can share progress if yall really want me to :). I achieved it by doing a 2x push pull leg split. My 1 RP is 63kg i weight 62 kg. I am not satisfied with that number not becuase its so extreamly low but more because it has been 63 kg for 2 monts. My physique has changed quite a lot in those 2 monts, but my strenght hasnt. So i made this post asking if my strenght hasnt increased becuase i might have been training to hard, wich resulted in to litle recovery?
