1st of all I am not a big fan of 2, 3+ forced reps, personally one is normally all I can manage, as my muscles are fried, but that has come from years of training that way.
IMO the rep you fail on, plus one more assisted, is plenty.
Too many forced reps, drops etc will lead to over training, even with low volume.
A forced rep should be you pulling/pushing as hard as you can, and your spotter giving you as much as you need to complete the reps, at normal speed in good form, if your form has to change to make the rep, then he is not giving you enough, and you may as well just cheat it up.
