and yes 3 red to failure does risk injury..i said that is the lowest one wants to go..in general 5 reps is about right.

a 1 rep max is by definition to failure.

Power lifters do 1rm training regularly, by that I mean weekly.

Finding your 1RM may be going to failure, but training at or around it is not.

You really are completely and utterly clueless.

1RM means 1 repetition maximum. So by definition it is to failure..retard..go read a book on logic.

By your logic any weight you lift is to failure. You really are dense.

if you lift it to the point that you cant lift it anymore..than yes

anyhow..not too many workouts out their do 1 rep max on the regular..maybe some that do it as the final thing on a pyrmid scheme. I have a feeling no boxers on earth fucking do 1 rep max as a workout.

Lifting the heaviest weight possible for a single completed rep is not the same as lifting a weight to failure. It's very basic. Go argue your point on a strongman/powlifting/olympic lifting/american football forum, you'll be laughed off the site.

so lifting to 3 rep failure is something that you shouldnt do because you risk injury, but i rep max is safe..

Your biggest problem is that you don't even seem to know why you're wrong, and you seem to have absolutely no desire to rectify the situation either.

so doing workouts that involve 1 rep max is somehow more safe than 3 rep?

[Johnstown]

many people dont even do 1 rep max for fear of injury....yet somehow in Primate and viruses mind it is a reasonable method of training...curious

Who are these many people that are afraid of injury? Strength athletes have used 1rm training for years, something that you've completely ignored in every post i've mentionwd them.

[Johnstown]

ehhhh i dont know about 1 rep maxes..much higher chance of injury and the strength gains really arent there Johnstown


Only 100% incorrect. Virus

by the way..i know you edited your first post on the subject of 1 rep training
