I know theres alot of threads about chest workouts but i didn't see the answer that i was looking for. Sry if its in another section.
Recently i've been doing the 5x5 program for my chest Mon and Thurs. Well i've been doing it for about 3wks and last workout strength was way down. I'm thinking maybe i was overtraining by doing 5x5 twice a week. For those of you that have done it and have had great success with it, do you do it once or twice a week? What do you think about maybe doing a 5x5 chest day on Mon and on thurs doing a light/shaping workout? As of right now i'm gonna TRY and take a week off to recover and get at it again. I just want to have my stragery right. Here is what i've been doing:
These are the maxes btw:
Flat BB Bench: 240x4x1, 235x5x4
Incline BB Bench: 195x5x5
Decline BB Bench: 205x5x5
Stats:

*Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
