50-100 per set) then muscle growth is similar compared to the ‘bodybuilding’ example that was mentioned above. If you use light loads to extreme repetition ranges (e.g. Lighter loads (20-50% of maximum) for 15-30 repetitions per set with 30-90 seconds rest (or even no rest if doing circuit training or supersets) will stimulate ‘muscular endurance’ adaptations. Increasing muscle massĪ ‘bodybuilding’ workout using moderate loads (50-85% of maximum) for 8-12 repetitions per set and 1-2min rest between sets will stimulate increases in both strength and muscle mass. Requires a lower force level, such as running or long-distance cycling. Moderate loads during explosive strength training, particularly if the sport Explosive strengthĪctivate the muscles rapidly, each repetition should be performed as fast as Using this type of strength training will limit the amount of muscle growth, and has been classified as ‘neural strength training’. >90% of maximum) for 1-4 repetitions per set and allowing 2-5min restīetween sets will develop the ability to activate and coordinate muscularĬontraction to allow us to lift heavy loads, i.e. Neuromuscular characteristics, you should plan your workouts based on your As each /strength) training method targets specific Training isn’t all the same: there are several different types of strength youĬan and should work on. Here I shed light on how varied strength training actually is (or can and should be), why endurance athletes should work on their strength, and reveal the most promising use of heart rate monitoring in strength training. If you change the order or type of exercise, the number of exercises, sets and repetitions, inter-set rest duration, or load relative to maximum, the training stimulus can change dramatically. All of these methods are important and affect your overall fitness and performance in unique ways. The problem with bundling everything under one big umbrella is that training methods and the adaptations of long duration, HIIT, pacing, and other types of endurance training are different. Similarly to branding ‘endurance exercise’ as all the same thing, strength training is often considered to be a ‘package deal’.
