How often to train for strength?
How often do you guys train for strength. I usually do it 1 week out of every 4 or 5 weeks. I'm not on juice but I still plan to do this. How often do you guys train for strength (as in low rep heavy max weight)? Thanks.

I used to train like this the majority of the time, I would either take a week to 10 days off every 12-16 weeks as not to overtrain, or I would just simple switch exercises. The only time I would go light would be when my joints would start hurting, but first I would take a week off and only do one week of light high rep training.

I was gonna focus more on PLing this year and try to build the thick, dense muscle and use a scheme like.
8 weeks PLing
3 weeks Hypertrophy
1 week rest
repeat
However, I'm really starting to enjoy the program that i'm on with great success and i really want that 315 Bench so i'll probably just go straight PLing till i get to my goal.
Next year I was planning on concentrating more on size and detail, but i still will have PLing in there but just not as much as it is this year.

Thanx for the compliments solidj. Right now my bench is about 275, but school will be starting up soon and thats when the havoc comes in and i start missing a workout here and there and it really starts to hinder my progress, but I'm still gonna get there, sooner or later (probably the latter).

PLing=powerlifting
The program i'm using for my PLing is based off of WSB (West Side Barbell).
