Yeah...this is supposed to be "active recovery" where you drop weight or volume or both, rest periods increase, and the workouts are supposed to be easy to allow your body to recuperate.
Next week all the new maxes go into effect and progressively get harder each subsequent week until time for deload again.
I guess it's just short of taking the week off. But you get to concentrate on form and trying to force blood into the areas you're working.
