Another similar example I recall Ronnie giving was say 1 person did 100lbs/8reps barbell curls then 95/8 and then 90/8 doing just straight sets... Then you have another person who does a triple drop set starting at 100lbs/8, 75/8 then 45/8. Who yields the best results? Obviously the first person lifts the most weight over all, So does the person who lifts less weight but performs the triple drop set get the best benefit or as you said Marcus.. "you implement an intense training method to force growth by over loading your muscles fibers"
Ronnies answer would be whoever lifted the most weight would yield the best benefit which makes sense but both ways make sense.
Is there any type of training methods You would advise against Marcus? Like would it be alright in your opinion to do a triple drop set on say decline bench press/squats/curls/abs?? Etc...? Or any other beyond failure method for that matter?
