I make sure I use strict form for all my sets, I do my reps in a slow and controlled manner, i make sure i can hold and maintain a rep at whatever point.

It's not that i do not get a pump, it's just that after a certain point during a workout, the fullness just slowly start to fade. I even sweat less then.

I'm wondering if I should push on after that point, or it will do more harm than good.

I think this is something common. We have our bad days at times.

However if the above isn't , its probably the combination of your exercise/movements.

Do something like this.....if you are on lat raises( example )..a mate gave me this idea.

do 5lbs x 15 reps
then drop to probably 10lbs x 10 reps for like 3 sets or so.
then end the particular exercise with 5lbs x 15 reps again...something like that...it all depends on how you fix the figures in...no definite..

is that HVT? maybe ? who cares, it might work for ya....

Sweating might be very subjective, it relates alot to your surrounding as well....heck, in winter i'd sweat less...but the intensity is still the same..don't worry, you'd still release toxin/nitrogenous waste via penis.

Even simple enough...maybe its just time to change your workout scheme.....?

Is it recently like this?
Perhaps a week off is what you need.

Sounds like your muscles stopped firing to me.
Probably excessive sets of going to failure for too many months? <--- I'm only hypothesizing, since you said sweat less.

BTW, you sure you got minum cukup air or not? And got sleep enough of not?

I agree on the laying off for a week or so simply jut for rest. We all need a break...

tongue.gif... i doubt muscles can stop firing (stop firing as in inactive i suppose?) unless you're dead...if muscles stop firing...heck ya can't probably move now can ya? biggrin.gif

But if you still feel like you need to get some activity done...do some cross-training during that week off...Who knows...your conditioning is just off...and thats where cross-training helps.. explore possibilities...
