Where to find it
Practices on IX Coach that cite Detraining
- Run a volume-reduction deload: cut sets by 40–60%, keep intensity

Deload Week
- Protect VO2 max from detraining
Maintain a minimum effective dose of cardio during busy or injured periods — VO2 max is hard to build and surprisingly fast to lose.
