#201: Should You Take It To Failure?

Eric, Jeff, and Alberto discuss the research on as well as their experiences with training to failure.

How is training to failure defined and studied in research? How does what the research suggests apply to most bodybuilders? In which situations is it beneficial to train to failure? In regard to hypertrophy, what is the difference between training to failure versus leaving one to two reps in the tank? What advice do the coaches have for beginners when it comes to training to failure and setting their weekly volume?

The answers to these, plus many related questions are covered in this episode.
