    Bad form, weights that are too heavy for your joints (regardless of if the muscle can handle them), lack of warm up and lack of stretching are what cause the injuries. Techniques that allow you to go beyond failure are a way to do maximum amount of work, while avoiding the strain of heavy weights.

    I'm going by every video I have seen of a top level bodybuilder they only do straight sets, and the risk that is taken by doing these beyond failure methods it would just be common sense not to do them especially if you are a pro getting a serious injury would definately ruin there chances of competing for a while.
