Zero training sessions logged this week means no volume, no ACWR to calculate, and no muscle groups hit — that's a full detraining week. If this was a planned deload or life just got in the way, no harm done short-term, but back-to-back zero weeks would start eroding the training base you've been building. Recovery metrics held steady across the gap — HRV averaged 21.8 ms (comfortably within your baseline range), resting HR was flat at 71.7, and deep sleep averaged 62 minutes — so there's no recovery debt keeping you off the platform. Nutrition compliance was solid on the four days you logged: calories landed at 2,812 (right near your ~2,884 weekly target) and protein hit 280g on the nose, so the fuel side is dialed — just get back under the bar this coming week.

You hit an all-time Bench Press (Smith Machine) PR at 160 lbs × 13, a solid 20 lb jump over your previous best of 140, which shows real strength progress on that movement — but that single session on a biceps/legs/triceps day was your only training session all month, down from 16 sessions in the prior 30 days. Total volume collapsed 93% to 22,640 lbs, and with no ACWR data to track, you're firmly in detraining territory regardless of how you slice the load. Nutrition logging was perfect at 30/30 days, with calories averaging 3,021 against a ~2,884 weekly target and protein at 290g versus a 280g goal — compliance is tight and the mass phase fueling held up even without the training stimulus to justify it. Recovery metrics all moved in a positive direction: HRV up to 21.5 from 19.1 (comfortably in your 18–24 baseline range), sleep up half an hour to 7.6 hrs with 92 min deep sleep, and resting HR essentially flat at 71.5 — all consistent with a body that simply wasn't being loaded. The forward-looking concern is straightforward: you banked a legit PR and your recovery reserves are topped off, but one session in 30 days means you're losing accumulated training adaptations, and the longer this gap extends, the more ramp-up time you'll need when you get back to a normal 4-day rotation with Jeff — getting back on schedule in July should be the single priority.
