When is it advisable to move from regular sets to concentric failure to myoreps match? Will it be possible to adapt and recover? And for how long keep in mioreps match?
It depends how you structure it. Obviously a set + myo reps will be more stimulus than just the myo set by itself so adding an extra set+myo match will be more per set stimulus but you could easily just add myo reps normally and end up with a very similar stimulus...so the answer is...variation :)
Does Myoreps work on compound lifts? I really like this technique, but im on a 2 day full body workout so doing lots of isolation lifts isnt time efficient
They work well on Compound lifts using pins. For example Bench Press from pins, Bent over Rows from Pins, Anderson Squats etc. Pins/Safetys will allow you to use compound exercises while remaining safe.
They can work on compound lifts too just be aware of the resistance profile and fatigue cost. There's more to be concerned about Myo-repping your hack squat than a short overloaded bicep curl
I have an issue on that... Let say I do a 1st set of 12 reps (whatever exercise, whatever weight) to failure... 2 min rest... 2nd set I will hit 10 reps (maybe 11)... 5 to 10s rest... Then I can hit 4 to 5 additional reps but I am supposed to stop at 2 (or even 1 if I did 11) ? this sub-set becomes useless ( too many Rep away from failure)...
Points were very clear and concise, thanks for the info man.
Great thanks! Just what i needed to know🙏
Good job, thank you!
Edit: you should control Better the eccentric in the last rep, that's where the most gains are 😅 (I know you know)
thanks its helpful and really clear
Thank you for a thorough explanation and demonstration. I know Borge Fagerli invented Myo Reps but who first came up with the Myo Rep Match concept?
No clue! I do not know where I heard it. Perhaps Dr. Mike!

whats the advantage of doing this approach instead of regular myoreps?
