Should you ALWAYS train to FAILURE?

[@MaxEuceda7]

In conclusion, you don't HAVE TO train to failure, as long as you're training close to it. But if you like doing it, just make sure your recovery is able to sustain it 👍 Looking to get protein powder, creatine, or any other supplements?

remember 40 grams protein per meal is enough as more can overwork your liver or whatever lol

I trained like this my first 2 years of training, and it worked. NOW, I make more room for recovery seeing as some areas take a bit longer to heal.

Which area you feel take longer. I feel like you can adapt over time. I use to feel sore training legs 2x a week now I train 3x a week and recover fine.

[@ZoroHayoung]

@@Javier-vi6db actually those drastically changes at a very short period are more propaganda than facts. You probably is progressing, but slow and steady, which is pretty normal, sometimes you aren't even able to notice the difference, because your precipitation of change isn't the same as your progress. You don't need to eat a tone of food too, that will just bring more body fat, your body naturally have a limit of gains, if you supras this demands, will turn in fat. Just eat well enough keep training and eventually you will achieve your goals, turns this more of a lifestyle than a project.

Can you make a video about how you track and plan your workouts? Both short term (tracking sets in the gym, planning the next workout), and long term (planning deload weeks).

[@n.s6463]

Yes

[@jokesonu9108]

It seems daunting I know. Watch different videos and mix up with different variations. I do supersets and train certain muscle groups like chest day and abs, or back. legs and shoulders, arms. 4 groups mix and match what’s more appealing for you. Make a set of workouts and try them. Do different variations pick the best for your mind muscle connection. Grind hard see results. 🤘🏻ZYZZ

[@slimmyshank69]

I do low volume all sets to failure, idk if i'm crazy but for whatever reason I love taking 10 seconds on that last rep on dumbbell presses and bicep curls. I also feel like in a weird sense if I don't go to failure I don't deserve the muscle gains lmao.

Train to failure is recommended for bodybuilding. It ensures you make the gains. It depends on the goals. For strength it's not necessary.

You only need to do one working set to failure, maybe to in increased instensification-phases. Doing three all the time is a waste, waay to much volume which will do nothing for hypertrophy. Rather do one working set for each exercise.

I train to complete exhaustion which is typically hitting a particular muscle from all angles usually 16-20 sets, which runs about 2 hours long.

Yes you should train to failure. As you get more advanced you should be spending less time in the gym and more time recovering as your workouts get more intense.

[@morecapri6914]

I train to failure on every set. Often I even go beyond failure with dropsets. Still no recovery issue.

[@davidsenay2811]

Yea.... No training to muscle failure each set is fine. Assuming it's with good form and not using momentum. That's how you are suppose to train. Complete failure isn't even what he is talking about... Complete failure involves something like a drop set where you literally work to failure ..... Meaning 5lbs curls for 15 reps almost becomes impossible when you regularly curl 50-60lbs for sets.... And that type of complete failure isn't necessary... However it will get you the best results for building muscle, strength and endurance.. but over the long course will lead to Injuries such as tendonitis.

[@heynilabhajyoti]

I used to do them a lot. Believe they did work but sit ups or weighted sit ups are much better as you can do 10-20reps, increase reps, weight and track progress better. Much more effective thank holding a still position for over a minute or 2.

If your training like that doing your biceps hate to see what your doing with every other muscle, that would be close to failure as your curling your wrists that's taking the tension away from your bicep and to your forarm so you just wasted your time. If you kept your wrist slightly back you wouldn't been able to get false reps.

[@corneliogallo3250]

My guy the bicep still got worked, plus it looked like he was in the final reps of his set so it’s understandable to see some form breakdown trying to crank out some more rep, just because you shifted some work to the forearm, does not mean the bicep just said”ah my work here is done, time to leave”

[@moneymakinmitch8130]

Looks like that was his last couple of reps judging by his facial expressions so it’s understandable if you form is a little off towards those last rep/s

[@rajindernijjer]

@@moneymakinmitch8130 there's form break down and then there's form change and then there's incorrect form. If I'm training my biceps from experience that's not from fatigue that's from unexprience and weak wrists.

[@rajindernijjer]

@@corneliogallo3250 the bicep is no longer working if it's failed and then your using your forearm that's dumb. I'll just let my shoulders do the work now because my biceps failed. I guess that's why I have 20inch arms and he don't.
