"We also have the cyclers. Born out of the period when the Bulgarians
were talking training 3-4 times per day, many coaches got into mini and
macro cycles. Sounds impressive and scientific and appeals to academia.
Unfortunately, they completely missed the boat about how long and hard
and consistently a lifter must train to warrant any sort of backing off
period of training. Cycling is best left for the spandex boys with the two
wheels under them, birth control, and the washing machine."

Though the underlying rationale is valid, don't put too much faith in
the particulars of the prescription (or any other formula!).
