Those worried about overtraining are scared!!

I will agree with you that not trying for that extra rep because of fear of overtrain is bull. I believe in complete concentric failure.

I just think 30 sets or whatever for a muscle group is over kill. And who has time to spend hours in the gym anyways when you can get the same effect in like 40 min?

hey bro we kinda see things the same then. whenever I do huge sets it is as I said on isometric days using pretty much my own bodyweight in a bootcamp style workout. I use this to shock muscle groups. your comment above about it being bull not going for the extra rep is what I started this thread about. Maybe I didnt word it correctly. As for the dorrian yates thing there are other pros such as Lee Priest who has had a few interesting articles such as this one

it still depends upon the person but as I said you saying that not going for that last set is bs. We may not see eye to eye on everything as each person needs to find what works for them. My point is dont use the overtraining thing as a way not to try to find that way.

agree Abaddon

a pro told me once 'there's no such thing as overtraining, only under-eating & under-resting'.
You can train as hard as you want to, if you will eat & rest to accomodate it.

That is so wrong!

It is a supplement companies dream about "there is no overtraining, just over eating"!!!
