QUOTE(darklight79 @ May 15 2006, 12:56 PM) Yeah. Exactly! There's a difference between training for hypertrophy and training for strength, hence the huge differences in the training philosophies of powerlifters and bodybuilders. Hmm....what's the main difference in training for strength then? Does hypertrophy imply reduced strength in that case? |

QUOTE(darklight79 @ Sep 10 2006, 10:59 PM) Both can be interrelated but powerlifters like doing singles and triples. You get stronger, you get bigger and vice versa but you can't expect to grow if you utilize only singles into your workouts. So low reps + heavy weights will be more conducive to building power without adding that much bulk? Or is it the ever popular high reps/low weight?  |
