Just curious, do you think the guys on disc 3 were doing 60% of their real 1rm or were they backing off to emphasize form. I just thought it looked like they were using less weight then the ladies and I thought that they looked pretty ripped? Maybe I am trying to do too much weight in that when I am giving out its more my cardio/breathing thats giving out before my muscle.
 
Remember they also have their body weight to move (which is a lot more than that of the women).
 
Light or Heavy?

AND it may have been the 12th hour of the day, taping retake after retake and they may have been exhausted. I remember Cathe said she had to drop her weights at times just to ensure she could finish the set for taping because she was tired after the long hours and retakes.
 
Yup!

And DH loves to remind me of that whenever I match or exceed the weight he's using!

Although I don't see how it applies for shoulders, biceps, triceps.... hmmmm. :D
