Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Isn't training till failure a really bad plan? It'll cause damage that's really hard to heal from.
If it's taking really long to heal, you're going well beyond failure. There's a heightened risk of injury, but again, that's not failure.
The bigger issue is that training to failure does less for strength or endurance. It's more about muscle size. And the benefits are seen if you train to just below failure. Actually crossing that limit is mostly meaningless, as far as your muscles are actuslly concerned.
