I find it great that despite having astma, you actually go out and play a physically demanding sport, and not use it as an excuse not to instead 
Calisthenics? What do you do?
eff you Martin. They're called muscle ups.
I've been planning on starting such things for a while but I'm just so lazy at times when I'm home 
. Pull ups, sit ups, and dips. I don't really know what else to add to that.

Do you guys lift to failure every single workout?
I work out 3 times a week and I feel that I'm going to failure too often. Meaning that I lift weights that are heavy enough so as to leave my muscles completely spent after I've done my 3 sets of reps. Is this always the best technique, or would it be wise to only do that, say, once a week, and then lower the weights a tiny bit on the other two days and not lift to failure on those days? (I work out the same musclegroups twice a week).
Also, sometimes I even go beyond failure by utilizing dropsets after I've done all of my sets for a particular musclegroup. I know that this technique can be beneficial, but how much is it ok to do this? Is there a limit? I'm concerned that my body will get too used to the dropset technique and that it would want me to do dropsets every single time in order to make gains (if I do it too much).
