To get big muscles, you need hypertrophy training. When should you do each? Both types of exercise are beneficial, but there are significant differences in how the two affect your body. If you’re an athlete, strength training is more important for your athletic performance. Strength training...

As I’ve endlessly reiterated, the problem with simply referring to “training to failure” is that a variety of definitions have been used over the years and they are far from identical. For a good historical look at this I recommend a paper titledClarity in Reporting Terminology of Set End...
All within that 8-15 rep range, and all done at a loading intent on creating good movement patterns while still challenging the muscle to grow. NOTE: rest intervals were shorter. This is done to increase growth hormone response – just another added benefit to hypertrophy training. Ideally you...
The training theory with the most scientific merit for gaining mass is Hypertrophy-Specific Training (HST). Theoretically, it should be the most effective. The theory is based on physiological pathways involved in the hypertrophy of muscle. Let's zoom in to a micro-scale to see why this theor...
Both forms of hypertrophy would have to occur though, regardless of if you train more for strength or muscle mass. However, the ratio of myofibril to sarcoplasmic increase will obviously be different between two individuals with a different training focus. ...
suggest that this is the intensity anybody should necessarily train at. I’ve been in maintenance training for a couple of years now so I just get into the gym, do one or two Doggcrapp style sets and get out. If I were doing more volume, I wouldn’t go to this level of failure....
⤻That’s an “equal volume” design — keep the overall volume of training the same, but vary the frequency — and it’s not ideal for making the point that a reduced gym investment delivers good value. Saving trips to the gym is not nothing, but tripling the length of the one work...

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is common in the critically unwell and encompasses a heterogenous group of conditions with diverging therapeutic strategies. MR may present acutely with haemodynamic instability or more insidiously with failure to wean from mech
