Sounds like there is a background discussion about excessive training ongoing.
Some of you BBC get weaker as Corona side effects?
I told you.
Anyway.
Reps into muscle failure, ideally using lowering weights per additional sets and less repetitions when going beyond the normal amount of sets is not for muscle growth, it is for the cardio-muscular system which is in the end of the day heart training.
Some might remember discussions from the 80ies about athletes having larger heart muscles than normal humans and worries that those could lead to early heart attacks about the time everyone could spell all for a sudden Cholesterol when staring at the scrambled eggs with bacon in the mornings .... ?
The less weight training is done to shape a bio-chemical experimental natural reactor laboratory in human form, but for antique old school training, the more important exhaustion becomes in a training plan being an important and super healthy targeted event of reaching the own limits.
For the BBC that means more energy on show stage flexing the muscles by stressing them, which might be in tight rounds that one pitch of salt next to form and mental shape.
