@dawn16 I mean there’s a drop off in reps. If I hit 9, then next set would be 8 and the final set is 6.
I think the “don’t go to failure or you’ll explode” is overblown. Going to that level of failure where your body breaks down isn’t as easy as people on the internet make it seem.
It’s more of a mindset than anything. When I try to avoid “failure” I just end up sandbagging. But if I chase that “failure” I just train harder and push each set to its full potential. At the end of the session I know I did everything I could for that day to grow.
