I wouldn't recommend taking that all the way to failure.
But you'll get close.
I'll get close.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
For me, it's always going to be close.
My criteria there would be form breakdown.
So as soon as my form started to break down, I might have had another two reps left or three reps left, but that's it for that on the barbell row.
Whereas if I'm doing a... Here's a better example.
If I'm doing a one-arm...
cable pull down from my lats, which I love that exercise gets a really good stretch in the lats to come down.
Like I could I could look a little ugly at the end where I'm just doing a couple partial repetitions or something just to just to add a little bit more stimulus that with no extra risk to my to my body from doing it.
So there's the difference between them.
But I'm always advising that you're training towards the the high end unless you're training for strength.
which is a whole different game.
That's a whole different set of rules.
It's a whole different stimulus that you're trying to build there.
That is high, high loads that you're trying to manage efficiently, not with inefficiency to try to force muscle growth.
So that's a whole different
ball of wax and you're really trying to stay away from true failure there.
