Ok, been thinking about this one for a while - bear with me here:
If I exercise/train for 3-4 days in a row by the 4th day my body is weaker, cannot complete as much physical manoeuvres and becomes less dexterous. For example if I was at a tennis camp for 4 days I would make really bad shots in on the 4th day of practice, while on the 2nd day they were awesome - I start to taper off.
If I'm studying for an exam i will put in maybe 4-5 hours day sometimes 8, if I do this for 4 days solid my brain is fried by the last day and I struggle to take in much info if any.
I think both examples are true for most people, now here's the kicker. If i then let my body recover with sleep and good rest, when I then go back to tennis or studying I am really better, im making the shots that I practised all week better than ever before and the stuff i studies has really sunk in and i can recall and understand it.
What im saying is there's comes a point that with constant repetition that it becomes detrimental, and this is a stage you need to reach before then resting - to allow the body and mind soak in what you have been doing.
So another example, I study for an exam for 12 hours straight. The first 90% is great really productive, then it become exponentially worse and by the last 1% its pointless continue without letting the body recharge and process - no matter what I think about I feel I dont understand anything, even the earlier stuff. Then when you come back in the morning after a good nights sleep, you go over your notes and its all sunk in - seems completely fresh, you understand it makes sense.
Would this be the same for subliminals? My logic here is that the constant cycle of subs would actually be detrimental to the process unless a break was taken, for example 5 days of subs then 2 days off. It could be any combination that works, but the key here is that the mind needs to rest between running subs - and in this case the rest should be clean uninterrupted sleep with no subs.
