I know it's normal to get puffed out and feel stuffed after some sets but how much is to much? I think i go over board at times and really push myself to get that last rep or two out. if i'm going for 10 reps but feel really stuffed at 8 should i stop for example? I just feel that if i don't get the full reps out i'm failing and it will take forever to get big
Sounds like you may be going heavier than needed. I like to leave 2 reps in the tank when training and go to planned failure every once in a while. Also is this going to failure just for the last set? Posted via Mobile Device
Yep he is a smart arse but he is also trying to get a point across that we have to repeat over and over and over.
You get bigger from eating not lifting, lifting only stimulates your body into wanting to grow bigger muscles it is the eating (really eating enough) that makes you grow. So trashing yourself to failure is not going to get you bigger while eating like a sparrow. Going in and lifting so you can recover and then eating up a lot and repeating this will get you big.
Also since you are yet to answer any of the questions I asked here is another, what is your program?
