I definitely believe in 1-2 all out sets for a given exercise as do others. My one major question is that i see others who also say they do one all out set after they "warm-up" but the way it looks like to me is that their "warm-up" isnt exactly a warm-up. It seems they do pretty heavy sets(relative to their own strength) anywhere from 5-6 or more and then perform their 1-2 all out set(s). It seems like a pyramid of sorts. I know others with 1-2 allout sets but i see squat w/o's of people and there were 6-7 sets of very nice weight leading up to 1-2 all out sets. Just because you are exerting(sp) all energy on 1-2 sets at the end doesnt qualify it for 1-2 work sets. I think anyone who is doing poundages on any exercise of 3-500lbs for a few reps for 4-7 sets lets say, before they say they do "1-2" WORK SETS are actally just pyramiding like a lot of volume trainers just in a slightly dofferent way. I understand you need to warm up your muscles for the heavier weights to come but it seems like too much for those that say they only do 1-2 work sets, its actually a lot more imo.
