    Why You Shouldn't Grind the Weight (srs)

    I like how this bloke advocates perfect reps every time and to avoid grinding the weight (ie training close to or at failure) because it greases improper motor patterns, trains you to stop at the sticky points, and does not help to increase your strength at all. He says train 70-80% of your...

    Forever on spread

    I am getting confused! What's going on. I can't give reps out to anyone for ages now. You must spread more rep before giving it to this person again. Well, c'mon having to rep the whole forum just to be able to re-rep again is a bit pointless, no? no? :confused:

In fact, some of the largest bodybuilders to ever grace the posing dais were ex-powerlifters. Prosecution: Lifting with light weight and higher reps...
