I think people need to understand that difference between strength training and hypertrophy training when discussing these topics.
Its a more favorable approach to a bodybuilder to go into a state of deconditioning rather than a state of unloading, as you would in strength training.
Mark Rippeteo sent me his book that is suppose to come out soon about 3 weeks ago called Practical Programming. I finished it the other day and Its a damn good read and well worth the little amount of money to buy it. Goes into great detail on overtraining and muscle/neural adaption.
Btw.. This is my type of topic. Id be more than happy to post my updated version of Hypertrophy Training and some other notes i've gathered over the years.
