Lifting considerably less than maximal resistance
Lifting considerably less than maximal resistance
In the Science of Sports Training book, Mr. Kurz mentions in the chapter on Strength, that there are three methods to eliciting maximal muscular tensions. The second method is using considerably less than maximal resistance until fatigue causes one to fail (repeated effort method). I have read this particular section of the book carefully and yet I am actually confused as to whether or not this method is the same as hypertrophy training or the same as muscular endurance training or both. I know that he mentions those things along with another sub-method of failure lifting. Please clarify this for me.
