Strength training and sets
Can I record a set taken to failure?
Yes. State the completed rep count and, if relevant, that you reached failure. A target is not a result; an attempted but unfinished rep should not be counted as completed.
Example wording
Pull-ups: 9 full reps to failure; I couldn't complete the tenth.
Practical tip
RIR 0 is an estimate of no reps left, not necessarily a visibly failed repetition.
