Do We Need To Do Exercise Until Failure

in sports •  7 years ago 

If we want to build muscle fast and we want maximum growth of muscles each day then yes we should train until failure. Failure is a stage which consist of different number of reps for different person. You will reach your Failure point when you will be incapable of lifting weight according to proper technique and with full range of motion.

Reaching stage of Failure without proper technique can become the cause of injury and it is the most common mistake of beginners. They want to give their full effort but they do not care about there technique. Failure training is necessary but with proper technique if you are not hitting the correct muscle than it is no use to train until failure.

Lifting Until Failure tests both endurance and strength but if you will lift light weight until failure then there is no need to lift until failure and if you will lift heavy weight for very small number of reps then this will not give you max muscle growth. So best way is to lift normal weight for at least more than 6 reps and less than 15 reps until failure otherwise adjust your weights accordingly.

I don't need to exercise till failure. I just need some body type then maintain that.

@sufyansial, hmmmmmmm.

When the essence of exercise is known and defined then we might not find ourselves at the failure end.

Yes that's very true. We on the same page. Thanks for insight!

Ok would love to look a bit strong with hard abs but not too buffed up. I guess I will have to not reach my failure point. But this is a good build up post.

No pain no gain.

Thanks for sharing! great tips i need to follow your advise

Sport forms a culture of optimism, a culture of vivacity.

Successful greeting is always for you.

Wooow good

This is an interesting content, i use to engage in fitness things back in them day. You really spoke what my guide book used to say. I lost interest when the book was stolen from me. Yes it's true that with the correct technique and reaching point of maximum failure, you develop fast muscles.

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people, thank you for that great work done

Friend, I find it quite easy to read this type of information, since in my condition I find it somewhat difficult ...

And you should not underestimate the diet as well.
Very important for reaching fitness goals

If you don't try you've already failed and that seems to be the objective. hurrah!
