I'm not arguing, nor am i jockeying to see who everyone will "believe". I'm just sharing my experience ... its a friendly conversation eric, please dont take it any other way. If you have more info on the subject for me to read i will gladly do so, and you know this. We are here to better ourselves, not argue about who is right.

The statement about not recovering any more after a certain time period and lifting too heavy...that's just nonsense, hrdgain. This is so way off I don't see the point in arguing with your about it. Just a little bit of research from anyone reading this thread will lay most of this to rest.

As for this, perhaps my wording was off, I'm not sure, its hard to tell when I'm typing, but I see validity in it.
What i picture from your example, is someone on bench pushing themselves to failure or past for one or two reps, then thinking if they just wait five minutes and do it again, then they are building strength. Extreme, yes, but you and I both know that happens, and its not safe. And thats what i was cautioning against when I mentioned going to heavy, and rest intervals.
