Would training about one rep away from failure cause significantly less gains than going to true failure. Ive noticed lately I am pushing myself to my true limits and beyond. The problem is that I am getting very very sore, and have severe cases of DOMS, I just took a week off, came back (a little too hard) and now am too sore to have a normal workout. So if training close to failure will still produce hypertrophy and let me recover faster, then I will change my workout style.
