My mission is to provide people with the knowledge necessary to start living a healthy life and embrace physical exercise.

We know that hypertrophy tends to correlate with the number of heavy reps you do in a week. We also know that training to failure results in similar adaptations to not training to failure, except training to failure has several drawbacks:

  1. It reduces the amount of effective reps you can do per workout
  2. it negatively affects recovery reducing the frequency you can train with
  3. It makes you accumulate residual fatigue faster and you have to deload more often.

These drawbacks far outweigh the small benefits training to failure offers:

  1. Creates a better adaptive stimulus with low volume workouts.
  2. May allow advanced lifters to overcome training plateaus when used in a periodized model.
