Quick question for anyone that may know the answer:

What are the advantages and disadvantages of over training? For example instead of doing 3-4 sets of something, doing pyramid sets ranging from 10-15 sets, OR working out the same muscle group multiple days per week?

When I looked it up I found so many conflicting views on this. Personally I think that (theoretically) if you over train your muscles can't get any smaller therefore the worst case would be you stay the same. I'm just getting desperate to push through a plateau which I've been at for about a month and it's really getting annoying.
