Just over 2 months ago I put up a video entitled Failure to Fail where I showed a bunch of videos of myself and others training to true failure before contrasting them to a mediocre set by Brad Schoenfeld (where he just quit) and two sets of Mike Israetel's trainees, who never got close to failure but who make said "This is 0 RIR." Which it wasn't.
Among other things, I finished that video with the challenge "Are you really going to let Lyle McDonald train harder than you, you f'ing pansies."
Apparently the answer is yes as exactly TWO people sent me videos. This video showcases those two people who had the guts to step up. It also showcases another who tried to step up and failed as miserably as his trainees (you can guess who it is).
