Fine-Tuning Your Routine
Now's the time to do an assessment of your results. If you aren't losing weight as quickly as you would like, consider cutting back on your food intake by about 10%. This will help move things along. If you're progressing perfectly, don't change a thing! Just keep on doing what you're doing.

Failure - That point in an exercise at which you have so fully fatigued your working muscles that they can no longer complete an additional repetition of a movement with strict biomechanics. You should always take your post-warm-up sets at least to the point of momentary muscular failure, and frequently past that point.
