I’ve learned more bio on this forum than from my actual bio class 
Your training frequency needs to improve.
7 hard sessions per week is too much.
Bigger fish man, bigger fish.

A frequency of 7 PW is certainly not necessarily ‘too much’ as an isolated metric. If volume and intensity are properly adjusted it is fine. Anna’s problem is exceeding her MRV, not the frequency in itself.
You did 900 jumping jacks? Boris does not approve.
I don’t know about that, most professional athletes don’t even train 7 days a week. Only Bulgarian weightlifters did that when Abadjiev was around, but Sunday was still an easy day.
If you train every day then when do you recover? Never?

Hence the word “hard”
She can change her training sessions, or decrease her training sessions, or improve her recovery rate.
Top right looks most jacked (delts and bis).

I think that was after some workout resembling Cindy, so I was definitely pumped up
The rest of them are taken after squats. Idk what happened in the first one

Week 3: Day 3
Deadlift: 1x5-60,75,85, 4x4-90, 3x4-100, 1x4-95, 3x5-85
Conventional DL: 4x8-60
Bench: 1x10-30,35, 4x8-40, 1x4-50, 3x6-45
- felt really good and strong, 100kg felt really smooth, 13 sets was mentally hard though, conventionals felt really easy, worked hamstrings, bench felt heavy at first but the heavier weights actually felt really strong and good, killed chest
Most professional (!) weightlifters today train tiwce or even three times per day. Not that anyone should try to emulate that.
The Bulgarians trained all day long with breaks between exercises and meal breaks. The difference is that most weightlifters train 5-6 days a week, 7 is unusual.
Sheiko had a training camp at one time and the lifters were training 5 days a week for 8 total sessions (3 days had 2 sessions). You can’t do that if you have actual responsibilities in life.

Whether pro athletes, Bulgarian or otherwise, over train has little or nothing to do with the fact that Anna definitely overtrains. It is known. She does more in one day of jumping jacks then the rest of us do all week.

I haven’t done a jumping jack in decades. First thing that crossed my mind when I read that was “I wonder if I can still do them”

No argument there
Well?
I do them with my kiddo a few times a week. What ever can fit into a 20 second attention span.
Shall I post a form check video?
