I've been lifting seriously for about a year now taking breaks here n there. The week of Thanksgiving was my last "deload" where I did 2 workouts that week instead of 4. Since then missed 1 day for being sick.

I'm making good progress with my 4 day upper/lower split. I don't know if I should take a breather or keep going hard? How do I know I need it? What's the best way to do it?

    Without knowing your programming, response, goals...there is not a clear answer to this. I will say I have utilized over 50 different ways to destress, desensitize, reset, washout, etc...my clients and myself. It isn't that difficult but I would keep in mind what your short and long term goals are and program accordingly. Something else to consider is how much stressed you accumulated since your last low stress block.
