Sounds like you’re very aware and intuitive! You were able to try something, see what happens, and realize maybe it wasn’t the best call. It’s all data collection and you’re able to answer your own question! Do the amount you can recover from and live to see another day to do it again!

Is your water, sodium, food sources, sleep and wake up time all consistent?

The good thing is you’re aware of it. Use it toward your benefit instead of thinking of it as a negative. It’s easy to tell you not to overthink it, but I know that’s not as easily done. So use that overthinking as a positive and put it into your sets, once the set is over don’t think about it again until next week

What’s sleep and diet like?
If you’re not recovering you’re not recovering, you’ll have lack of progress from not recovering not by pulling back to recover better.
If diet, sleep, hydration are good then change the training. Just try pulling back and see what happensTBJP Nutrition: Michaela10

That amount of time is irrelevant. All that matters in that case is that you are digesting each meal well

I don’t change anything until/if I have to. I treat training exactly the same, and if there comes a point of recovery declining I adjust volume, but never effort

Don’t stress it. Sometimes an involuntary break can work toward your benefit. Go back into training fresh, take the first week gradual, and by the next week you’ll be like you didn’t miss a beat

I would add fats to the pre training meal, and I would add intra workout carbs and aminos if you are not currently using

It’s not so important that it is absolutely necessary. I personally never train that way myself and very rarely program it with clients. Not that anything is wrong with it, I just do not personally prefer it. But if you are someone that needs variation and volume spread across sessions and a bigger space of time before repeating a session to progress it then it is a good option.

I would keep protein consistent

Embrace it. That’s the cost of being passionate toward progression. Use it toward your benefit and not your detriment. Keep breathing calm

If this was my plan, here is what I would do:
Lower clean to 40mcg one week, 20mcg for one week and then remove
Lower slu to 100mcg for 2 weeks then remove
Lower cardio to 30 min 5x/week
Increase cals 500 on training days, 200 on non training days
Assess weekly as you go along and you can gradually work cardio down and food up based on response if and when needed

Have you expressed this to your coach?

No. Not unless you’re using heart rate and exertion as a form of cardio. If you’re just using the steps as NEAT then it doesn’t matter
