    Actually, after watching even more, I super agree.

    As an aside, is there anything wrong with using a 8*3 routine? I'm looking to build strength primarily so I'm looking to almost fail on my last rep on the 3rd set. I've been told that's the best way to build strength rather then lean out?

    Lower Reps for strength but you'll need more sets than three if you want to make consistent progression. (This obviously depends on your training frequency and level of experience though). Diet is what will 'lean you out'.

    EDIT: And failing reps isn't usually conducive to consistent gains in strength.

    Yeah what I meant by 'failing' is finding the right weight that you last rep of 8 on your third set is your maximum.
