Training to Failure Is a MUST for Hypertrophy (Or Is It?)

00:00 Intro 0:31 Failure vs Stopping Short of Failure 5:17 Wait, What About Research in Trained Individuals? 7:47 Mechanical Tension & Motor Units (Probably) Explains These Research Findings 13:54 Closing Thoughts Is training to failure needed for muscle hypertrophy? In this video, we explore the scientific research comparing training to failure versus stopping short of failure (leaving reps in reserve) for muscle growth.
