How to train while recovering?

Newbie calisthenics enjoyer (training for about 6 months)

​

So I have been training to failure constantly and going really hard + every day (PPL) in the last 2 weeks or so and that might not have been a good idea. I think I may have injured my bicep tendon a tad in one arm and wanna implement a recovery period. I have already looked at some sources on how to do so but they are giving me confilcting advice. Im 2 meters and 105 kilos so its a bit tricky not to go to failure. Do you reccomend I go less often or do 1-2 reps only? Have you had a similar experience, if so what do you do? I have been getting close ti some goals lately and I don't wanna loose mommentum completely.

​

I'm not asking for medical advice, just how you do a recovery period of training.

I'm sorry if this question was already answered somewhere.
