Although I don't train for strength events, I find that my recovery for longer events takes about twice as long as it used to 20 years ago. Therefore, I have two choices, either reduce the workload so I can run workouts more frequently or increase the time between workouts to 3 days. My preference is to reduce the workload. I find that going 90-95% instead of all-out leaves me with fewer injuries and a structured routine (which I like).
