Training to absolut failure
« on: Today at 02:27:14 AM »
Guy is a beast & he dropped that bar very safely but I personally don't think it's worth the risk going to absolut failure on Squats or other heavy loaded lifts.

Leave the Gym with Gas in the tank

This is why trainjngbto absolute failure is bad. Look at old (dead) man methzer. He could barely move at age 49 due to all that unnecessary heavy duty training he was doing.

Yates also had his number of injuries.

Mark Dugdale tore his chest and quad doing all that hit nonsense.

Its best to leave 1 to 3 reps in the tank before failure.

Even Arnold said training to failure does not mean to exhaustion. It means training until the point when you can no longer do another rep without stopping to take a rest before hand.

yeah Rest-pause training which i donīt think is bad but not stopping for that rest is a recipe for disaster with say Squats.
Of course the Guy in the Video could have had some other issues, we donīt know.
I always stop before complete failure..the body is not Indestructible

True absolute failure is death.
