More than two exercises per muscle are redundant and so on...this thinking brings injuries and pain
That's been the hardest part for me to learn: that a ho-um, submax session still has a training effect. I've had to be reminded, by injury, that I'm TRAINING, not testing.

I think we've all been there! Unfortunately, sometimes injury can be a great teacher.
