Some wise words from Strength and Conditioning guru Rafael Ruiz. Make sure to follow his gym 1Forty-Four1 on Facebook "As a Performance Coach preparing athletes for sports specific and/or real world application, I'm disheartened by watching 1/2 ass'n reps because you're tired or just trying to reach a certain # in an arbitrary rep scheme. 99 out of 100 times, this common practice will cause a lot more harm than good. A ball doesn't slow down according to your effort, a bullet doesn't scale down and that's great that you finished your reps & sets, but the play was over :10 ago and you never got into position to even think about making a play!" -Rafael Ruiz
