Muscle Building Insights

Can you explain simply the Anabolic MAPS program and why it creates muscle gain?
I've run MAPS Anabolic one time through while remaining in a small surplus and bouncing around maintenance to build muscle, lean out, and build strength, which I achieved. I'm on my second time going through MAPS Anabolic, doing the same thing, and I still feel like I'm gaining some muscle and strength, just not as much as the first time. Should I continue doing MAPS Anabolic, or is there a certain program you suggest from the MAPS series while I am doing somewhat of a body recomposition?
If I take a week off and then jump to phase III of MAPS Anabolic, will I probably reach overtraining quite quickly?
