I'd check the Outside the Gym thread for better advice than I can give. I merrily set off on a 'let's do 12 months of easy strength' mission last March, and having followed it (largely) to a T for six months or so, feel battered.
It's written in the manual, the volume adds up...especially when the movements are different, but the same.
The 'easy' bit is a little insidious (well to trainees like me anyway) - feeling a bit shitty/under the weather? I'll just knock 5kg off today...Struggling to find the time? I'll just break up the training between doing jobs and squeeze it in... Knees/elbows playing up? I'll just change out the movements and keep going etc etc. All with a dollop of 'this is working great' on the top, which it undoubtedly does, for a while.
In no way am I knocking Easy Strength in any of its guises, I mean I merrily set off to do a year of it I love it so much. It's a philosophy though not a programme. Long story short - plan for a good break now and then...
