Good rule of thumb is >compounds(squat, bench, dead)
go to almost failure. When I go to failure with those I have recovery issues >accessories
failure every time.
Going every set to failure takes a lot out of you. I have to take longer rests between sets and I'm exhausted after just 3-4 exercises. I do workout 5 times a week. Recovery barely keeps up.
Honestly it might give good strength gains, but hypertrophy gains might not be as amazing. Total workout volume seems to be more important than maximum weight for that.
By doing lower weight but more sets/reps you might be able to do more volume. The point is to strike a balance that works for you.
I dunno I actually like to gym I’ll be there 2 hours a day 6 days a week. If I went to failure or near every time it’d be impossible to me to keep going, I’d rather not be optimal and be able to gym more than be optimal but only go like 4-5 days
>is already foredoomed to multiple injuries
do NOT take every set to on compounds to failure aim for 2 RIR except on the last set only if injury-free otherwise you'll relapse
some de-loaded accessories could be done to failure on each set although it might still negatively impact recovery
WOW its almost like Mike Metzner deboonked every complaint about failure ITT. you guys are all seriously moronic. ESP the guy who says he does HIT style training 5 days a week
Provide a single article that concludes that failure training improves the performance. And I mean comparative studies, because going to failure has a very clear tradeoff on future sets and overall recovery
no warm-ups?
>warm up
Are you a homosexual
Warm up to failure
how many reps are you doing per set if you're going to failure
as many as I can
>t. Afraid to start exercising
I’d be in the gym for 10 minutes tops
>be me
>doing skullcrushers
>do every set to failure
>fail
>crush skull
>die
This guy is a liar. probably young and stupid.
>t. multiple injuries
>If you don't take every b***h to failure you are a set.
>becomes ronnie coleman tier snapped up without lifting big weights or being huge
Have fun with that
Once you start snapping your shit up you can
>quit
>recover better/modify your training to survive
>keep going and live in snap city
ok
Wait. I haven't trained seriously in 17 years until recently. Are you not supposed to take every set, or at least most to failure?

To add to this:
Calisthenics: (Pullups) Do not allow failure until final set.

Guess how I know you've never made it to big boy weight.

If you fail to work out to failure, does it still count as a failure?
