IMO a rule of thumb is always aim to do as little as possible to produce maximum results.
As much as at some point you may need to do more , More is never more .
Assuming you want to build muscle as you move further from failure , to closer to failure reps become more ‘stimulating’ but also ‘fatiguing’ .
So it’s a case of weighing out stimulus vs the cost (fatigue)
There’s no clear line in the sand that can be drawn , but most people would benefit training closer to failure . And if you want to make serious progress then accept the price is the price and there is no periods where building muscle goes on sale . I say this as you are worried about stuff that does not matter and some of it are prerequisites to actually get massive .

Hey guys ,
I had a later start this morning which meant longer in bed . I was so excited at that prospect as I knew I’d drop a lot of this fatigue I was carrying but I had a very disrupted sleep & in can’t woke up feeling worse . Low energy, Flu symptoms and all . I’ve had to pass on this afternoons leg session.
I am on week 9 of this block so it might be well that I need a few days away from the gym to drop fatigue and freshen up before the next block .

Hey Damian ,
That’s incredible that you trained at such high volume and managed . Fair play to you . Glad you are better and all .
Your new proposed split looks decent, how much volume are you looking to do ?

Personally I prefer continuous reps on leg work because that means there’s constant tension on your muscles .
But it’s not the end of the world if I take an extra breath to force one or two reps at the end of the set every now and then.
5-6 seconds for me is too long , that’s almost the break taken between cluster sets & you are doing a straight set .
So I’d drop the weight and standardise the set first before overloading it . Otherwise you’ll keep taking longer breaks between reps as the weight gets heavier.tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

As you are just not recovering from your current volume, it might be an idea to lower your volume and start again ?
Maybe keep compounds 1 set and isolations at 2 sets . When programming upper i prefer 6 movements tops to start .
Press variation
Dip variation
Fly variation
Lat pull
Upper back row
Tri isolation

Do you mean pendulum squats? If so could your set up be causing the issues ? Having feet to low that heels are coming off sometimes can cause shin splints . If you’ve tried different stuff and it’s still painful then yes I’d move on . But it’d be interesting to find out why you having them in the first place .

If it’s on a machine I would first set the seat in such a way that’ll allow me to press as deep as possible whilst also allowing me to take advantage of the floor by driving my feet onto it creating counterforce which makes the movement more stable .
I’d have a Slight hip shift on the seat here to bias clavicles and anterior deltoid . You want your upper arm to finish almost under your chin .
Next time you do the set , send me a video of it on my DM . Young_4040

If for some reason your couldn’t train , I’d always move that session to Sunday . You can use that day as a buffer for sessions missed as Monday is rest day , it gives you enough time to recover .tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

I would prefer to run it the way Rich has suggested above purely for the same reasons as you don’t want push sessions disrupted by unrecovered triceps

Hello team
So 2 days of the pre script intensive seminar done . My head is fried . Sometimes you forget how demanding it is to sit in class for full days .. 😂 but cannot complain . It’s been a good weekend. Met loads of new faces, made loads of connections & learnt a few me things. .
A weekend well spent .
