Are you talking to me?

I think he meant Debaser and Beast.

I don't think one set of anything is going to lay you out for the count unless you have someone like Dr Ken screaming at you while you do it... I've squatted just shy of double bw for 20 in the past (at a much lighter bw than I am now) and was perfectly capable of doing multiple sets of highbar squats & leg presses shortly afterwards.

All that Darden/Jones hype about ''one set of curls making you puke'' makes me smile, if it applies to you then you desparately need on your conditioning before you have a heart attack walking from your car to the gym.

One set to failure is overrated.... I respond best to 2 exercises a bodypart, 2-3 to failure work sets of each.

what do you think happens when you get into that 10-12-15 set range for a bodypart?????? Honestly, if you do 2-3 to failure, your workout CAN'T take more than 1/2 hour........

I'm not sure why this would be a bad thing, but keep in mind I don't have "chest days" or "arm days" because they aren't very productive. I may only do a couple sets but I'm doing 4 or 5 exercises. I'm usually at the gym for 1 to 1.5 hours.

Tweakle most exercises 1 set is not going to destroy you, but with 20 rep rest-pause squats I can only do an exercise totally half-assed afterward. Also, if you do 2 exercises and 2-3 sets to failure per bodypart, then you won't be able to train as frequently as me doing 1-2 sets per bodypart with 1 exercise. This is the most important issue IMO. I hit most bodyparts twice a week, as opposed to once a week as most people do.
