Updates?
just so lazy to update my workouts. i have them on my phone though. i need to do a lot of copy/pasting and editing
been sick the last few days so strength no doubt dropped
loving training until failure for a single set. the workouts feel amazing. i stimulated the muscle without beating myself up, so i leave the gym still energized and feeling accomplished
now what i like to do though is fail 3x in a row. So I may DB bench a big dropset of 40kgx3, then 30kgx4, 20kgx4 (failing an additional rep after those) for example. That's 11 reps total yet definitely also stimulated strength gains with the very low reps, and size gains via going to failure 3x in a row on an 11 rep set (14 reps if you count failed reps).
i'm loving this way of training and i wonder how it could have worked out 10-15 years ago in my training career.
the other amazing thing is these style workouts lead to gains even if i only lift 1x per week or every 2 weeks. It used to be the case that I would lose some strength very fast if I missed a couple of workouts
