STRENGTH FOCUSED TRAINING
When you engage in strength training, you apply stress to the muscles, causing microscopic damage to the muscle fibers. Your body responds to this by initiating a repair and adaptation process. It does this by fusing muscle fibers together and creating new proteins, which make the muscle fibers stronger and thicker.
In addition to muscle fiber repair, your body also enhances the neurological connections between your brain and muscles. This means that your brain becomes more efficient at sending signals to your muscles. Over time, you will be able to create stronger and more explosive muscle contractions, allowing for heavier lifts and more repetitions. This adaptive response is the driving force behind increasing strength in the human body.
The human body will not change unless you force it to change. You can’t force your nervous system to adapt to higher stress levels by doing the same old three sets of ten. The adaptation process must be forced into action by progressively increasing the intensity of your training sessions.
INCREASING STRENGTH IS NOT ALWAYS THE SAME AS INCREASING SIZE
When it comes to lifting weights, there are different scientific approaches for building maximum strength versus just building bigger muscles. To build maximum strength, the focus should be on enhancing your body’s ability to exert force. Your training program should focus on heavier weights, compound lifts, explosive movements, and creating an adaptive neurological response.
To build strength, prioritize heavy weights that challenge your muscles. Aim for sets with fewer reps, typically in the range of 1 to 6. Focus on generating maximal force with each repetition. This will train your nervous system to recruit more muscle fibers and strengthen the contractions your muscles can produce. Allow for sufficient recovery between sets, ensuring your muscles have enough time to replenish their energy stores and be ready for the next heavy lift. Lastly, incorporate compound lifts as often as you can. Compound exercises involve multiple muscle groups. Examples would be squats, deadlifts, bench presses, and power cleans. Including these movements in your routine allows you to engage more muscles simultaneously, stimulating overall strength development.
