Then your mind is your enemy. Going to failure is inconsistent with developing explosiveness. Apparently you like to do it or doing it gives you a feeling of having driven yourself. Fine. Developing both explosiveness and endurance is going to require some trade offs, but you are making a one-sided choice.
