Any advanced lifters have a decent full body workout (3 days a week?)
The best personal trainer you can invest in is YOURSELF.

I have doubts that an advanced lifter would make any progress training only 3 days a week... unless the sessions were very long - but then if your reason for doing it is recovery this is no different to splitting the same workload between 4-6 sessions...
AFAIK there are two possible routes for the advanced lifter who keeps running into overreaching:
1. Take time off to resensitise - also known as strategic deconditioning by the HST community. Then come back with reduced volume
2. Specialise on specific bodypart for a time, just doing maintenance work for the other parts. Rotate which groups you specialise in.
Of course there are no prescriptive routines for any of this, it relies on you structuring your own training in response to your needs.

Thanks for the response man, I appreciate it. I've taken the last few days off to try and recover but I use to workout every second day for around 90 minutes hitting everything with around 4 sets, chest, back, quads, hams, shoulders, calves, delts, abs, bis, tris, Obliques.
I might try it again. I think I just enjoyed it a little more tbh. It usually went - compound, rest, isolation, rest, repeat for each muscle. I guess I can muck around with itThe best personal trainer you can invest in is YOURSELF.
