Lifting weights to failure can help build muscle fast but strength coaches say it's not recommended for everyone
Lifting weights to failure is a strength training technique and, unlike the name implies, has nothing to do with failing at anything. While this strength training method may help some people build muscle quicker, it's not cut out for everyone. Lifting weights to failure is an effective strength training technique for advanced lifters but may be dangerous for beginners.For added insight, I spoke to Sullivan and another certified strength coach about the benefits of lifting to failure, who should use the technique, and how it can help experienced lifters achieve their strength goals.For example, leg curls involve moving at the knee to target the quad while bicep curls involve moving at the elbow to work the bicep. Performing isolation exercises to failure is much safer and easier than compound exercises, says SullivanHowever, the study also concludes that training to failure is not more effective at improving strength or muscle mass in untrained individuals, which supports Sullivan's recommendation that beginner lifters avoid it.
