Can Any One Here Say that Going Beyond Failure has Actually Helped Him Build More Muscle?

Emeric,

I respect you a lot. I hope I can do what you are doing when I am 70.

But why are you training like this? You are not trying to build new muscle at this age, right? I don't think anybody like you who already has a very good amount of muscle for a 70 year old person will actually build more muscle at that age. So logically you are probably trying to maintain what you have and not build more muscle at this age. Is all of that necessary to just maintain your muscle mass?
Or are you training like this because you enjoy this type of training?

I started to train this way agent in 2020 , before that I was working out with out incorporating negatives on every body part, sense started agent I did gain back 1/2 inch on my arms and 2 inch on my legs, also I am working out 2 times per day and I love it, also for the last 3 month I incorporated robber bends also. I have been doing 100 reps body weight squats on no leg days, and I will tray to do 50 reps squats with 225 lbs tomorrow, I did 40 reps last Thursday, even I am over 70 I do try to gain back muscle, not to compete. I do this because I love the challenge and keep me young and healthy.
