Train to Technical Failure

End a set or endurance effort when form starts to break down, rather than pushing through sloppy mechanics. This keeps the work stimulus high while reducing unnecessary injury risk and fatigue, and in strength training it often captures most of the benefit without needing absolute failure.

when we go through our stuff with our athletes and they quote-unquote fail or they finish, that's generally because we saw a massive technical breakdown. You're done.
