Training To Failure: Is It Really Necessary

from Super Human Radio Hosted by Super Human Radio

SHR # 2672:: Training To Failure: Is It Really Necessary - Guest: Dr. Brad Schoenfeld, Ph.D. - The argument about whether you have to train to failure to make gains has waged on for decades. Is it possible to be as big and strong as possible and neglect ever training a muscle till it can no longer contract? Or are you just flirting with overtraining that will ultimately stall your gains in the long run? No one knows for sure, but today we will elucidate the scientific evidence that may change the way you look at your current training approach.
