Training To Failure... And Beyond | Coaches Hour Ep 30

Everyone says they train to failure but almost no one actually understands what that means. In this episode, we break down the different types of failure, why true muscular failure is rarely reached, and why the idea of “training beyond failure” doesn’t make sense in most contexts. We dive into stability, exercise selection, and how different muscles fatigue across ranges, plus how tools like muscle oxygen monitoring reveal what’s really happening beneath the surface. If you’re a coach or lifter chasing better results, this episode will challenge how you think about effort, execution, and progress.
