    either is good as long as you keep progressive resistance in mind, which is actually the principle weight lifting is based on. That means every week/ to 2 weeks you have to increase in either repititions or the weight lifted. I personally used to go to failure and increased my bench press about 50 pounds over the course of a year(i only started recently) and gained 30 pounds of muscle. Now im starting just going to 10 reps and increasing the weight im lifting by 2.5 -5 pounds per week (depending on the lift) to reduce plateauing and to continue gaining. Alot of it is personal preference, many people find going to failure more satisfying, and others prefer the less painful set number of reps, as long as you progress in some way, id say your doing something right. but for the record, slowly progressing really is alot more useful in preventing plateaus
