Answer:
The
answer to your question about maxing out
is that it can be either good or bad, depending
on your goals and/or training level.
I
would not recommend it for you if you are
a beginning trainer. Maxing out should be
reserved for when you have more training
experience under your belt, e.g. 6 months
to a year. Without building yourself up
to it through regular training, you can
injure yourself trying to do a max rep,
especially on the bench press.
Maxing
out is appropriate for when you are trying
to gain strength in your lifts. It teaches
your muscles how to fire most efficiently
to lift the most weight at once. Even then,
I would never recommend maxing out every
training session.
