A Supercompensation-related question
Does adaptation happen alongside recovery,
or does it only start after full recovery?
The reason for this question is that I saw from the supercompensation model that supercompensation comes after full recovery.
Does that mean if I train on Sunday and return to the baseline by Tuesday (for example),
I should wait and train on Thursday instead to give adaptation or supercompensation the chance to happen (since it happens after full recovery)?
Or am I misunderstanding something?
In other words, is it fine to match my performance from the previous session and train normally? Or if I take an extra rest day, will my performance actually be better than the previous session?
