I have been thinking about my workouts and how to improve them. I have trained to failure on almost every set on all exercises. I'm currently training in a more standard way pyramiding up then hotting 10-12 reps on the other exercises. I'm wondering if this is not the optimal training technique due to many more injuries and getting older.
I know when people train for power they almost never go to failure and hit the muscle 2-3 times a week.
I'm not a power lifter so my goal is to get stronger and add some clean mass as I progress.
What's everyone's take on training to failure?
The whole workout?
Last set for each exercise?
Or a mix of both?
Something else?
