Train to failure = growth of muscle?
-
Hi..
i would wanna know if training to failure will lead to muscle growth?
And does resistance training makes you gain strength? -
Training to failure is but 1 method out of many.
And strength training will obviously lead to strength gains, if you're doing it correctly. -
Muscle growth, pardon for the bad english.
I somehow find training to failure works for me, what are some other methods? -
what's training to failure?
-
failing to train.Originally posted by dumbdumb!:what's training to failure? -
It means doing sets of (eg. bench press), starting with the heaviest, then till you can't push your body anymore. The feeling where you can't feel your arms, like it is not there. Getting the 'pump' feeling is great.
The aftermath, you can't even lift your arms while shampoo-ing your hair.
But it will grow fast, well for me. -
hmm isn't it dangerous? u might overexert then tear the muscles or smth?
-
Hmm.. There's just so much one can do right? Poor form and technique might cause real injuries, but training to failure i haven heard of any so far..
-
but you won't be able to do it every day. man you'll just die.
-
Of course, probably needs 3-4 days to recover.
-
Unless you recover super fast i dont reccomand you do it every session.maybe for the last set or so.
-
Training to failure is very CNS intensive, so you shouldn't be doing it week after week.
-
Whats CNS?
But sometimes its like you do sets and you dont get the 'pump'
Heavier weights? Or more reps? -
whats your definition of training to failure? i benched weights till really cannot push the bar up anymore, i didnt had a spotter
so diedie must push back up, but still cannt. in the end i threw the bar to one side.
is that training to failure? till ur muscles give way. -
Hmm.. Till you can't feel your arms anymore? Use the bench press machines with the safety hook, if not you'll die there if can't hold on. That will be a disaster.
The moderators ain't too friendly huh? Hahaha.
Sorry if you guys think i am here to boast, i ain't. Just wanna share what i know and get to learn new things. -
If pump is what you want, there are other ways to enhance it too like a slower eccentric.
-
Not friendly? How'd you figure? So far we've been answering quite a large percentage of questions in this thread
-
The response aint very nice. Well, what can i say?
-
-
geez, we can never win can we? maybe we should just keep our mouths shut...
-
Hahaha. Well, seems i can't get along with you guys.
It's okay. See ya. -
Maybe its just because we dont say the things you wanna hear, who knows..
