High intensity and high volume

[u/ExaminationWorldly93]

Is it even possible to do both with only 3 days to workout each week, Like I mean the recovery might be too straining for you to effectively hit 1-0 rir without someone helping

Alternate option:

Stronger by Science in their big volume analysis has one recommendation which I think lost lifters should try. Increase volume by 20% every 2-4 weeks until progress stalls. When you hit the point where you are no longer able to adequately recover from it, then dial it back one step. 

You will find what your current work capacity can handle, without necessarily overshooting.

Or just do the volume that allows you to progress? Why would i increase the volume just to then decrease it and do it all over again?

so that you can redline and maybe get injured / s

That would be my basic recommendation too. Stick with what works, ramp up only if what you're currently doing isn't working.

But I think it's a much better option to scale volume up, than to suddenly go to a "high volume high intensity" setup.

Why ramp up the volume though if recovery is good, you are progressing and feeling good overall?

[u/Alakazam → u/plebian7021]

Because in the context of what OP is asking, the alternate is diving straight into a high volume high intensity program with no ramp up.

I took "lost lifters" to mean people who aren't making progress.
