I absolutely agree with you! Same weight, same number of reps = no way muscular failure is being reached unless they're resting for an excessive amount of time between sets.

I don't know how possible it is to go to failure on every set and I don't know how beneficial it would be either. I will usually only go to failure on my last set of every exercise only. My gains have never suffered and I have been injury free.

I have a question for you Easto...

So you only go to failure on your final set ?? per ex ? What did you do the prior sets before your last one & how many do you do ??

I am assuming you pyramid up in weight over a few sets say 3 working up to that last set that you said you do to failure ??

You just wasted 3 sets worth of your energy, to get to ONE growth/hypertrophy/strength producing set...

I will be my left nut, that if you cut out the 3 pyramided up sets you used to get to that one set to failure, the that you will be able to lift considrably more weight or get quite a few more reps on that failure set that you did when pyramiding up...

There is only 2 ways to judge intensity...complete rest 0% & 100% maximal effort, how is one to guestimate just how hard they trained if not 100% or complete rest, there is no way to accurately judge it..

And I agree, it would be very hard to perform all your sets for a exercise to failure...that is why I just do one work/fail set per exercise...

Don get me wrong I dont just jump to my max weight for that set...I will do 1-3 VERY light to moderat weight warm ups first, BUT none of these warm up cause any prefatigue AT ALL, unlike the pyramiding version...then I go straight to my heaviset set..

Try this once bro...choose an ex...do 3 light warm up sets, which cause NO fatigue at all...if you begin to feel any fatigue in the warm ups, stop that warm up...then, go right to that fail set, pick the weight you would usually use, & add 10lbs onto that & I can ALMOST guarntee you will get that extra weight for your usuall # of reps or MORE, most likely more...

I just dont believe in wasting 3 progressively heavier pyramided sets worth of energy, strength & etc...to get then to finally get to that one set to failure...why waste all that time & enery...& I can almost PROMISE you you will lift more on that fail set, which is in fact the set that is stimulating the most improvement...

Again...I am done ranting now...
