You will see rep suggestions listed below each excercise. Don’t kill yourself to meet them and don’t cheat with poor form to eke out those last few. It’s OK to go to failure. “Failure” here means “until you can’t do any more reps with good form,” or more specifically “muscle fatigue.” “Failure equals success in workouts,” Tom always says. In other words, it’s not the number that counts. If all you can do is five reps, then your muscles are being worked to their limit. If that is painful for ANY reason, next time try a lighter weight.
