How the best way to train to failure? Would it be best to do just 1 set and do it to failure or do a couple and make the last to failure?

you can train to failure in one set but its better to build up to it.
i usually train all sets the same weight so the first 2 progressively hard and third set is a struggle to get the final rep,but you do...
of course true failure would involve trying to get a fraction of a rep after that,but personally i wouldnt bother yet.
just keep adding weight
