#3 - the benefit of not training to failure is reduced muscle soreness and faster recuperation. Muscles can be worked more often, resulting in a higher volume of training.

#5 - irradiation/hyperirradiation - mastering the art of tension results in instant strength increases and protects the body against injury. Fatigue does set in, which is why this technique is used for short duration lifts. Strength endurance is based on the opposite; relaxation.
