      That leaves 3 full body days, or x2 upper/lower days.
      That is already mega cramped 2h+ sessions, I need the fifth day.

      You don't need to and it may be counterproductive. Of course on isolations it doesn't matter because the total fatigue in negligent, the only limiting factor is overuse injury.
      But if 5 or even 3 sets of squats with 1-3 left in the tank each set causes enough of a stimuli for your next session, doing 5 sets to failure is just hampering yourself along with higher risk of injury.

        people who go to failure on every set don't need to do 5 fricking sets for a growth stimulus.

          Yeah and you'll soon discover that 5 sets of high quality but high effort reps is more sustainable than 3 sets of balls to the walls folding over on the last 1-3 reps. I lifted that way for a while and for sure it works, until a point. I still do it on all vanity muscle lifts.

            literally just do reps until you can't do another rep. don't "fold over", don't compromise form. just do the exact same thing as many times as you can. what's confusing about this concept to some people? my last rep looks like my first rep but slower. then I try one more and fail to get the weight to its intended final position, so I declare the set complete.

        You need to lift close or to failure in order to grow. It doesn't take a fricking basedence to understand that, doesn't it ?

          It isn't. In fact, it can cripple your gains, depending on how often you lift, diet/recovery factors.

        never had one (from lifting weights)

        I really think people who associate failure with injuries have never actually tried it or they egolift. you're way more likely to get injured from going through the motions on a cardio routine or from going for one rep maxes. doing bodybuilding style training is really fricking SAFE.

            That's not an injury. If you lift heavy while holding your breath, when you release the tension the blood will leave your head for a short while and you'll black out. Maybe if you lifted more than 2pl8 once in your life you'd know that

    There is no bigger dyel flag than not ever going to failure. There has literally never been someone with a good physique who doesn’t at least occasionally lift to failure.

    The thing I think most people don't realize is that yes lifting weights is a cool hobby and it's a great way to be healthy and stay in shape it's 100% possible to turn it into an obsession. Obsessions are not healthy for the body or mind and you'll find yourself going crazy, especially with weightlifting. Making weightlifting into an obsession turns you into a dog chasing its own tail. There is no end goal in weight lifting. Only arbitrary numbers and subjective images in the mirror. You can literally spend years obsessing over weightlifting and make 0 progress due to body dysmorphia or having unrealistic expectations.

    Give yourself a moderately hard goal to achieve and then just have fun. 1/2/3/4 at 12% bodyfat. There. Youre strong and you'll look sexy. Now you can free yourself from your obsession and actually live your life

          Depends on your rowing program, but yes, it's probably one of the straightest forms of cardio.

    Don't really know what that attitude is specifically but although I like lifting to me it's just a means to an end (just like everything else kek)
    >You WILL rest 3-4 days a week
    >You WILL stop going to faliure
    No
    >You WILL adjust your training volume to keep the steady pace throughout the workout
    Get better work capacity
    >You WILL aim for higher reps
    Rep range is exercise dependent but I have no issues doing lower body compounds for high reps
    >You WILL get serious about cardio
    Eh
    >You WILL stretch often
    Already fairly flexible (nearly able to do front splits) from doing everything with full ROM, I only stretch hard to get areas (gracilis for example)
    >You WILL drink only clean water
    I drink green tea sometimes but besides that yep
    >You WILL have a balanced diet that includes of macronutrients
    Balanced diet is an irritating term but I mostly eat whole foods so sure
    >You WILL get at least 7 hours of sleep every night
    Sure
    >You WILL read books and learn a useful craft instead of wasting all time on a gym
    If you aren't doing supersets/giantsets to do 50% more work in the gym while saving a ton of time what are you even doing with your life? Books sure but craft I dunno
    >You WILL become the best version of yourself
