7 Dont's of Exercise

This is a pretty good article on the don't of exercise and I agree with most of them. Although there is one I'm not in total agreement with.

This advice is the one I don't completely agree with. I agree with the part about finding a particular weight to lift and then progressively increasing from workout to workout. I don't agree that it's not good to go to failure. I don't think going to failure is good all the time but, I do think that lifting to the point that you just can't lift another repetition is good from time to time.

BUT, if you are doing an exercise like a squat, bench press, shoulder press, basically anything where the weight is above your body, make sure before you go to failure that you have a spotter.
