Buddy how the heck do you do two or three sets till fail. are you kidding me. I want to see someone do chest, shoulders and triceps, do 6-7 reps and do 3-4 sets and the last rep is total failure. give me a break. I must be missing something. or better yet, do 5 sets of squats 8-10 reps each and ALL till failure, I'm telling you guys gals, I am very very fit person and I couldn't do this (and if I did I wouldn't be getting out of bed for work the next day, I might be able to do two set of squats till failure but then I wouldn't be able to work the next day, I must be miss understanding what -till failure- is.
I have done sets till failure but that's it, I'm pretty much done when I do, 3 sets of squats first two 90% till failure and the last set almost till failure and I'm out, I'm so exhausted I have virtually no more energy to push on, my legs are like noodles and any further exercise would be useless.
You need to do a video on what is failure and show us a 20 min video of someone working out till failure every set and then doing multiple body parts like people do in the real world, because ya'll must be juicing or something, ya'll kneee caps are getting sore from all the poking your doing with the HGH and d'ball. because I want to see anyone who can do -all till failure- who isn't juicing their minds out.

Hello Jeff
I'm 62 I lifted weights up into my middle 40s I want to start lifting again! I'm 6'3 230 and I still look and feel Athletic. I run 4 days a week around 60+ miles a month, depending on how I feel. I've had two shoulder repairs and a torn knee meniscus, that's why I stopped. I'm good to go, Now! so where do I start? Hit it hard right off the bat or ease into it slowly? I haven't noticed videos for older guys, who want to get back to look good! I won't be going to a gym, I have a great set of weights here at the house. Thank you for you time and effort to post all these outstanding videos! Les

Hey Jeff,
So when do we lift light? And when heavy?
Would you recommend running your split light one week then heavy the next? Or Lift light for say 3 weeks then heavy for the next 3?
I-ve also started my workouts with a heavy compound movement in a lower rep range. Then move on to drop sets and more isolation work in higher rep ranges for the end of my training sessions. What-s best?
My goal is to gain strength but also size.
Thanks for all the hard work and videos. You-re my number one resource for fitness it-s helped me significantly!

Hi Jeff, I agree with you that light weights are very important in firing those small hard to train muscles. But I am a bit sceptical about taking everything to failure all the time. As I think this can screw up your CNS. Making it hard to recover and resulting in low gain benefits. What do you think about this, I apreciate your work it's really helpful and I have made some gains by following some of your great tips.

I haven't worked out in 6 years do to bad sleep apnea but getting back into it this year. When i was young though. I would bench 30 pounds and do it 3-4 sets of 50, then once I got stronger I did it to 100. I got really ripped. of course people look at you funny in the gym but I don't care. I think its better than heavy weight and doing like 8 reps of that for 3-4 sets.

Hi Jeff and others, I-m a rather big guy (not overweight) and I-m starting to have good nutrition. My goal is to get lean and reduce my body fat percentage. My problem is I-m rather confused when it comes to the gym. How do I structure my day? Do I apply high weight low reps or low weight high reps? Appreciate the content!

Due to having a partially detached retina in the past and a heart valve replacement my cardiologist recommends I don't overdo it with the heavy weights. Is it still possible to lift only moderate weight but for more reps and still gain muscle or do I have to incorporate heavy weights or progressive overload. Cheers
