    • I understand the science behind it but 5ish reps with reverse pyramids, sometimes to failure, sometimes not, has always worked for me. Depends on goals I guess.SteveJobs
    • I guess switching up helps in the sense your body doesn't get used to your routine... but working out to failure is definitely a more important aspect.zarkonite
    • That's right. I choose a routine that doesn't force me to think or plan too much mostly because I like to turn my brain off and just do the work.SteveJobs
    • The method drgs posted is obviously the best approach, esp if you're competing, but I tailored my routine so that I enjoy it and stick with it.SteveJobs
    • you always train to failure. number of reps also sets defines the weights. if it says 15 reps you pick weights with which you can do no more than 15 reps etcdrgs
