Training to failure is, however, a controversial topic. The proponents of High Intensity Training— Mike Mentzer , Arthur Jones and Ellington Darden—advise training to failure on every set. But other experts believe that this will lead to Overtraining , and suggest training to failure only on the last set of an exercise {Link without Title} . Some practitioners recommend finishing a set of repetitions just before the point of failure; e.g. if you can do a maximum of 12 reps with a given weight, only perform 11. Others extend the training to failure concept and recommend performing 3-4 reps beyond failure by mildly compromising correct form in order to increase "burn". |
