Re: Failure Training
I agree with everything you wrote except..

Also non faiure sets seem to be optimal for shocking methods, if you were to go to failure and then drop the weight you would need to drop it a lot to be able to keep going. By not training to failure before that drop endurance will be much better.

IMO certain shock methods like dropsets/supersets are only useful for hypertophy - so it would be better to leave your failure training to this type of work and put most of your non-failure training on heavier straight set work.
