Is there any point to logging your weights and reps and obsessing over progressive overload if you're always doing sets to failure?

Yes. I personally struggle with knowing what failure is when I get stuck for a few seconds on a squat I usually don't go for another rep but if the prior leg day I made that rep or am at an equal number i press on

After a decade plus of lifting, I just kind of know, you know? I start most big lifts with a feeler/warmup set, and if I forget and undershoot a weight, then next set I bump it up, no big deal, and I make sure I fail out at the end.

It would be nice to have a little spreadsheet report graphing out my gains, though.

no there isnt. Mentzer, for all his faults, basically just says go to failure, or at worst 1 RIR.

There's no point in doing anything that's not just tracking your protein intake + overall calories unless you have some kind of illness or if you're a professional
Min-maxing is probably why most people give up early

Sometimes I forget what weight I did last week, so kinda. Also, if you're stuck, sometimes it helps to look back at a record of progress and see if you were doing something different that worked before. Plus, recording helps me stick with the program and avoid fuck-arounditis
