training squats and deadlifts to failure seems very silly to me

training squats and deadlifts to failure seems very silly to me
the harder you push, the more you're putting your lower back at risk of injury
the exhaustion rate for the muscle groups involved in the squat and deadlift are simply too varied to ensure safe load management when you enter the sub-4 true RIR range
for bicep curls, as an example, i know that failure on the movement is a result solely of my biceps failing
when my squats fail, it is difficult to distinguish the exact point of failure for each particular rep
failure to account for this concept might result in the placement of very heavy loads on muscle groups that are incapable of handling them, such as a fatigued lower back, resulting in severe personal injury
for all free weight squat and deadlift variations, be sure to account for how your body might handle the load as you reach closer to failure

            Do you? You replied to my dumbass post asking me why I am not lifting 10 reps of multiple times my own body weight. Maybe because you are a fricking nancy boy

            I'm pretty sure Rippetoe (PBUH) says NOT to do that. It's unnecessary.

            and those are my only two posts other than this one
            2. It's a joke about doing 3x5s only. You were supposed to realize that. Calm down and stop taking IST arguments so seriously that you miss opportunities for humor.

    This is why I use resistance bands for my dead lifts and squats. I don't have to fear for weights falling down and killing me due to my weakness.

    Hi OP, I have a history of taking my squat and deadlift training very far. I've done 20+ rep breathing squats and I've taken my sets to absolute muscular failure. Your core should not be the limiting factor on these movements. If they are: strengthen up your abs and lower back.

    "failure" on a compound should mean that your form is getting shitty. you stop when your form begins to fall apart.
