I don't have the muscle endurance for 50 reps, but it could be beneficial to breaking through plateaus

it is difficult .. 30reps is tough enough .. i then have to count in 5's to get through the next 20 .. the next 10 happens .. then it's soooo friggin painful by the time you hit the 50 .. feels like a million bucks after ... the pump is incredible .

What kind of exercises are you doing 50 reps for?

The only thing that I could see me getting 50 reps on would be leg presses..
