Still swinging in the breeze...Here's a bunch of studies about how multiset periodization is vastly superior to HIT. Science shows that only one set to failure only stimulates 20-30% of muscle fibers; it bogs down the psuedo-science that you only need one intense set to fatigue all the fibers.
Actual science shall prevail.
