Re: workout intensity?

I can reach failure in a set, move to a higher weight and lift to failure again and seemingly give it my all, and do many exercises per body part usually spending an hour to an hour and a half lifting, but I don't seem to get anywhere near that same pump.

This may be really obvious but I think that you should just lift heavier to start off, after being fully warmed up. If you pick a weight that you TRULY cannot do more than 5 times in 3 sets you will, by definition, not be able to do any more than that... no one is able to, for example, curl 50 pound dumbbells for 4 sets, 5 reps, without being able to do 3 sets using 52.5
