Default Re: Max weight X sets

For bodybuilding, you never have to "max out" for one rep. There is really no point and you could hurt yourself or wear the joints out for nothing. For warm ups, I will do light weight, but then move up in weight but instead of going to failure, I will just do a few reps to feel it. Hell, some days I even do working sets all the way up and still do three all out sets with my max weight
