I would never recommend to somebody to do one set to failure, as much as we like to think its not, failure is different with everyone, some ppl will 'think' failure when the truth is they got another couple reps there, which is fine but not if your only doing one set. I like to do a few sets to (mental?) failure. not physical cant do anymore type failure. One set to failure gives ppl an excuse to be lazy (IMO)
to me physical failure is when i can no longer push the weight on my own, and require a spotter to help me up? (obviously that is assuming we are doing some kind of press, appreciate this does not apply to some exercies eg. deadlift)
