I do reach a point of fatigue (getting close to failure), in the couple finishing 8-15RM sets. I may also extend the final set by 1-2 additional myo-rep clusters. My last incline bench example:
4RM: 4,3,3,2
10RM (considering accumulated fatigue): 10
12-15RM: 12+1+1 myo, singles spaced 3 breaths apart. Will keep the load constant until I can do 15 non-stop.
So the 10 & 12-15 are very close to failure, I'd call them
[email protected], and they don't seem to be compromising recovery. I also do band-resisted incline pushups at home on days off + some myo-repped band rows + band lateral & front raises + bis curls, attempting to hit 50 reps in each as per
these recommendations. So like you I train the muscles I intend to accentuate (which for me is upper body) 6 days a week.
p.s.: oops, turning this into my own log again, sorry, Sci, I hope you won't get discouraged and will keep doing 30-60 reps per MG which are still optimal at least for ramping-up loads at the 3 times per week frequency
What you do next depends on your attitude towards lifting. I simply cannot bear having to limit my load progression in order to stay within the 30 reps @85% loads. Maybe it's a bad choice of mine, I dunno. You'll tell us
