Are intense weight lifting workouts good?
Lets say you only lift weights 1 or 2 times a week
Using heavy weights to gain strenght and get bigger, you do each set of reps like its the last one you'll do and your life depended on it BUT you would rest enough between sets.
Is this bad ??? I mean im not gonna do more than 20 reps

1. You don't want to work to fatigue on all your sets, it can lead to overtraining. There are a lot of well-established routines that people use for high-intensity lifting, and your best bet would be to follow one of those. Google "5x5" and "pyramid training," to start with. If you really lift heavy on a plan like that, you probably won't be able to lift more than once or twice a week.
