No hate but I don't think you should say people shouldn't train to failure. I train beyond failure hard and heavy 8-12 reps generally 1-2 warm up sets and one -all out set-. It makes sense to break down that muscle tissue take it to absolutely failure and get out of the gym and rest and recover. I train 4 times every 6 days on a 2 on 1 off system and it works. Watch dorian yates workout routine and his reasons. I obviously do apply progressive overload each session adding either weight or reps. I obviously know higher volume benefits some people surely you could agree HIT/low volume annihilation training works better for others?

hey, nice video to start off. I have a question about progress. I do make some noticable progress in most of my workouts, but the one that is bothering me the most is bench press. I ussualy do something like 3x8 on flat and 3x8 on incline. I recently tried to press heavier weight, but i could only manage to do it on the flat for 3x8. Any advice on how to aproach this? Would mean a lot, thanks: )

I used to finish workouts with negative dips until I could no longer support my own weight with even a slightly bent arm. I used a step to get to the top of a dip, then bent my arms and slowly lowered myself through count of 6. When upon unlocking my elbows I fell, completely unable to use my triceps to slow my decent, I was done.

This video makes a lot of sense. I was doing 5x5 and actually got weaker on the BP. probably cuz I was going to failure? Anyway I just switched my program to 3 day split. keeping sessions nice and short.

Hey Alain, quick question. You talk about working in the 8-12 rep range for hypertrophy so why are the rep ranges a lot lower on your -Mass in a Flash- program?

But some people says that the last rep is what matter the most. That last rep will make you stronger, bigger, etc. what's your thought on that?

Great video, but I like to combine the two as you said, for the last exercise and set I usually go for failure to feel the burn
