it's actually 10 sets of 3...if you go to failure on set 1 what will you do for the other 9 sets?? yes failure on the last rep of the last set if that...the point is to get all the reps

it's called backward training. you're aiming to do the same weight as your 6 rep max for all 10 sets of 3. the second week you're supposed to go up to 10x4 and the third week you're supposed to go up to 10x5. here's a link
