Why..... why would you do this? You either have to be high as fuck or just taking the piss.

1) Why would you ever want to pre-exhaust the exact same muscles as you're using for the final set?

2) Even if there were a valid reason to do this, why wouldn't you just do multiple sets to failure?

3) Better yet why wouldn't you use progressive overload, starting off with high reps with a light weight as a warmup before ramping up to your working sets with doubles or triples? You know, like any normal sane person would?

Are you that same lad who wanted to try doing a single set of chinups with a minutes rest between each rep? I feel like you both come from the same school of routine design if not.

Sage well and truly ticked for wasting five minutes of my own time replying to this.

It's just a different way of building up to failure. Try it, you might like it.

Yeah, maybe not a minute between reps but just a few breaths. It's called rest pause training and it's very effective.

That it certainly is lad.

>>4381

Rest-pause sets of singles. Christ alive. How truly a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

>>4383

You do it for 1 set set of high reps and don't use anywhere near 1RM.

Try and do 20 bodyweight chin ups with a 5-10 sec rest between each rep.

Why?

>>4385

Well, then don't.

>>4378

So you like crossfit, then?

You gym nerds are as bad as any other kind of nerd. You make me sick.

It's a type of cumulative fatigue training.

>>4389

That is just a series of unrelated words with no real meaning. All fatigue is cumulative. In any case, why would you possibly think that inducing fatigue , per se, is particularly beneficial during any exercise other than cardio/calisthenics?
