Comments of the week

“In my experience, Mark is not in favor of pushing yourself to the point where you need painkillers or days off. In fact, he’s talked a lot about avoiding “squeezing” yourself in the gym because it doesn’t make evolutionary sense to be inactive for a period of time after a workout. . I think the point is to challenge yourself in a way that creates a compensatory response in the body. “Failure” does not mean struggling to get each final ugly representation, it can be a failure of form, grace, etc. It is a relative term. In other words, don’t put 10 times in the tank and expect an increase in strength or fitness. This is different from a micro-training approach, which increases movement rather than a specific fitness goal. In any case, it looks like you’ve found a way that works for you. Congratulations! “

– All right, Brad.
