I have gone 4 months straight without deloading before. Never felt the need to. When it's the time to deload you'll know it.

I think thats what he meant.

Yeah , i thought so too , just wanted to mess with him.  :P

On a serious note , i don't like arguments like that "i haven't deloaded for 4 months". So what? Someone asked for advice on deloading , we should give him legit advice and not pull-out-of-my-ass-broscience shit.
That article about overreaching/overtraining that LBSS posted was right on spot.

Some very useful stuff ( with overlap with LBSS's reference ) here :

Well I was responding based on my previous experience. I don't see anything wrong with that. That's the best advice I can give, if he thinks is of any value. For ME personally, that's how I work. There was a time where I would deload every 3 weeks or so, for just a bit. I don't think that was too smart, there's no need to deload when... there's no need. IMO

Nothing bad with sharing personal experience , on the contrary its very useful.
Taking your personal experience as a guide to give advice though might be wrong and/or even dangerous.
No big deal anyway, I don't even disagree with that "When it's the time to deload you'll know it" statement , i would just prefer it to be stated a bit more elaborating.

When it's time to deload, you will know that the macronutrients that nurish the somatic cells have become overwhelmed and it's time to decrease the neural load on the CNS to relieve the muscle cells and ATP stores of this stressful stimuli, doing so will provide a recovery benefit and will boost the creatine stores in the muscle cells, plus some T1-T3 hormone respose mechanisms that mean you're going to squat more after this.

Like this ^^^?

Lol well thanks guys but raptor's reproal experience does help though since i probably dont need as much deloading as i think i do. If i could go on 4months then i should. As long as i'm progressing and deloading wouldnt help me improve if i would to use it at a current point of time, i dont deloading yeah? But meh had a great workout the following session after that bad day. Lets see how this goes

Generally speaking, reading X's and Y's personal experience is nice and getting  some ideas/guidelines from people that have been training for years is great , but using them to setup your training is wrong.
You should take a trusted coach's experience that has read some books and trained 500 Xs and 400 Ys.
Profession/specialty vs broscience , choose wisely.
Cheers.

Yeah the point is though that if you're indeed progressing then you don't need a deload. If you aren't progressing anymore, a deload might be an option (among others).

I don't know, but definitely more than a workout. Plus there are things to check before deloading (have you been eating well, resting well, training well? etc)

Yeah but you really need to ask yourself "am I really losing strength or am I actually losing movement efficiency "strength" in certain gym exercises".
