I have to completely agree with all this....been training for 14years (now 29) and over the past two to three years ago I increased my reps for what I thought would add endurance ( I was doing alot of triathlons). Anyway, I stopped the tris about a year ago and have been getting tendonitis in just about every conceivable joint...it keeps me away from weight trainng and forces me to modify my routines alot. I am definitely going to change up and stop going to "failure", drop the reps a bit and hopefully see a benefit. Never done any gear or anything, so I do not look like a BB or anything to that effect.
All those high reps add up to badness over the long run. Cardio for endurance...not with the weights, or even dips and pullups.
yeah, also my first post...been a lurker for a few months
