We've discussed many times about the pros and cons of lifting to failure, but most of those conversations have revolved around using higher relative resistances (closer to your 1 rep max). So, what if we compared using a higher resistance and a lower resistance and lifted to failure and not to failure in each scenario? Do you think strength improvements were the same? What about improvements in muscle size? Like the saying I use all the time, can we do "less work" but still get the same result... Tune in and find out all the juicy details.
