Description

After 15 years of lifting, I've learned that training to failure isn't just about “going hard” it's a skill you need to develop and practice. Over the past year, I've grown to love it, but the journey wasn't straightforward.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the obstacles I worked through: choosing the right weight, avoiding injury, feeling it in the right muscle, understanding form failure versus muscle failure and more. I'll share the practical strategies that transformed my approach, from mastering setup and leverage, to using tempo work, to training my brain to stay focused under heavy loads, and exactly what to focus on first.

If you're wanting to increase your training intensity this episode is for you to gain the process to take it to the next level.
