Is Training To Muscular Failure Unsafe?

[goldenboyNJ]

very faulty advice,your going to hurt some one.

[goldenboyNJ]

boy oh boy if you keep lifting with that nonsensicle phylosophy.your day is coming soon.the only rule for snaping your shit up, is that there is no formula or set rule for snaping shit up.whats good for the goose isnt allways good for the gander

hey, i subscribed coz i saw your homemade protein bar vid, ... then i decided to listen to this, and lo and behold, your accent is the same as mine! I'm from Belfast! Whereabouts do you train mate?

[jreily88]

You want to train to failiure, meaning you can't lift anymore without using proper form, but you don't want to train to the threshhold limit, because then your body will begin to shut down, and it could possibly kill you.

@jreily88

[MetalCamelChannel]

Glad to see you actually talking in your vids once in a while, You should do more videos I bet it would increase your popularity and more people will want to Buy T6PA :) hope to see more!

sorry but I have recently come across an injury by training to failure while doing a high frequency routine (basically I got a bit ambitious and had to much weight for the reps I was doing), I'm assuming you mean training to failure can be beneficial say if you work your muscles weekly?

because training to failure with high frequency programs I have heard and found to be a very bad idea

[AdangerousRETARD]

@ethanomglolz stretch more

[ethanomglolz]

@AdangerousRETARD haha it's not a stretching issue I stretch plenty, I on my 3rd week of blast your bench and was going to high with the weights

[86iceblue]

@ethanomglolz get a spotter then..

[ethanomglolz]

@86iceblue lol what? yea im going to failure, on bench, without a spotter? how did you come to that assumption? besides that comment was AGES AGO and looking back on this vid is quite funny, yea if you train to failure you won't get injured this guy is saying...... I just don't know where to begin on how wrong that is

[86iceblue]

@ethanomglolz because you hurt yourself... if your spotter knows what they're doing, its pretty much impossible to hurt yourself - so it wasn't an assumption. Training to failure doesnt have to hurt.. I do it regulary and I get some wicked gains from it. Its just about reducing your weight each set and go till you got nothing left (normally 12-15 reps for me while working hard. You will only hurt yourself if you dont have a spotter, going WAY to heavy, or your technique is bad.

[ethanomglolz]

@86iceblue haha man this was ages ago and I really don't remember what happened, I think the program I was following had on the last week, 5 days of 5 sets of 3 reps, sounds like overtraining yea? so I think going to failure on each day just was to much (my form was spot on btw ;] ) now that I look back the idea was to do a manageable weight and increase the weight a little each time to ride the momentum, lol I like training to failure, but found it's good only in moderation

[86iceblue]

@ethanomglolz Yeah man, over training could be a possibility if your going 5 days a week. Just have to be careful regarding the order your training each body part so that all the parts that get hammered are allowed to rest fully before hittin them again. I normally wait till my doms wears off.. then leave it one extra day and then go back and do it again.. different for each body part though, and everyone recovers at different rates. Best to go by feel sometimes, rather than routine.

[goldenboyNJ]

@86iceblue how often do you lift ,if you still get D.O.M.S, every ach and pain isn,t necessarily D.O.M.S.

[morgz6666]

@goldenboyNJ Up to 6 times a week, minimum of 3 (I'll normally do cardio on weeks when I'm busy). I don't understand when you say every ache and pain isn't DOMS, what are you suggesting it is? With good technique, slow reps ... it's unlikely to be anything else, especially when it occurs days later.

[goldenboyNJ]

@morgz6666 Well its my opinion that DOMS is a condition your muscles go through when you either new to a speciffic exercise or exerciseing in general,in other words after you have gotten your muscle use to an exercise with consistancy DOMS fades away.but you may still get achs from inflamation in your joint tendens and ligaments or strains in musle from over training, You can classify doms as a beneficial pain but other pains are a warning that somethings wrong

[galacticmode]

youre so cute

[tilorb]

sense of failure is what we called it in wrestling and that was the objective when we did weight lifting and yeah it works.
