Strength vs Hypertrophy: The Science of Building Muscle
____
In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy explores how to build muscular size. He talks about the physiology of muscular hypertrophy by discussing the changes that take place within the muscle fibers. He also talks about exercise principles and resistance training routines that stimulate hypertrophy vs strength adaptations, and even dives into the different types of muscle tissue such as cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscle, and how these muscle tissues grow and respond to different stimuli.

    I am 62 and have lifted weights since I was 15 yrs old....over the yrs, I did all kinds of weights, heavy, light, more reps, less reps and today i am on a high rep/not so high weight with all my workouts...I call this semi intense, muscle endurance exercising...my sets are hardly any rest between them and I do a whole body workout at one time....while I don't have the mass of my 30 year old self, I still have definition and I am strong for my age...I found that over the years, although my muscles got strong, it wreaked havoc on the joints in my body so therefore I am lighter weight, higher reps person for the rest of my life....there really is no need for me to throw 225 pounds on my back and squat 12 times at my age...I can do just about anything I want athletically and aren't sore for 2 days after I work out like before...I call it muscle maintaining more than anything...I was waiting for a video like this, Thanks Jonathan

    I've always been a strength guy. Where people go wrong is they lift heavy too often and don't let their joints recover. I may only lift heavy once every 10-17 days. I do a lot of cardio or sport specific stuff in between and throw in a lower weight workout in between that might be closer to bodybuilders

    I once saw a guy at the gym successfully lifting the most ridiculously heavy weight. If you saw him in the street, you would think he doesn't even go to the gym. He looks like an ordinary guy without much muscle mass at all. Really goes to show the difference between strength vs. hypertrophy.

    Been going to the gym for 20 years (natural), at my peak, i was 92kg with less than 10% body fat and was comfortably pressing 50kg dumbbells for 12+reps....but it isn't sustainable. I was up at 4am and in the gym 1.5hrs a day, 6 days a week I was in constant pain in my joints, was taking pain killers to sleep and if i moved quickly I would get shooting pains, but always wanted to try and get bigger and stronger so thought I would just live with the pain. Since I became a father I realised I needed to take the ego out of it and look at a better way of doing it. Especially being a dad took priority and don't have half as much free time, I needed a different approach. Im now testing the "Mike Mentzer routine" of less time and weight, but more slow control and intensity. I've not tested it long enough to really rate it, and obviously I've lost a bit of muscle with not living in the gym (and also age) but I still get muscle pump and fatigue etc...but just realised the other day, I've got no more pain! No more pain pills, I'm also able to move easier and play with my little boy more. So I think I'm done with the heavy ego lifting 🙃

    I believe as long as you control the eccentric contraction that is the best way to stimulate muscle, based on studies but I cannot remember the name of the article. It basically stated that the concentric must be explosive in nature and eccentric controlled - the more controlled and slower stretch you give the muscle on eccentric the better results you should see in terms of strength gain/maintenance and hypertrophy

    @@christophegroulx7816 that can't be right and sounds like ego-lifting. Mike Mentzer himself preached that the muscle only starts GROWING after it's done RECOVERING. if you're in pain all the time you're never fully recovered and therefore you cannot be growing either. he was also concerned with systemic fatigue. proper rest is when the whole body rests. if you're training legs on monday and arms on tuesday you don't count tuesday as a rest day for your legs. you're still fatiguing your body so growth (in the whole body) is being delayed by that. these are all claims by Mentzer, I am merely repeating them.

    Depends on which fitness influencers. This guy is far surperior to a Vshred, but far inferior to a Dr Mike Isratel. He basically reccomended resting 60-90 seconds between sets for hypetrophy which is obviously pretty stupid compared to resting 2-5 minutes. This has been proven many times, yet wasnt included in the video.

    All my exercises are 5 sets, 30s rest between sets, 1s positive, 3s negative per rep. TUT and rest periods are precise as I listen to a metronome at 60bpm (ticking every sec), which also helps maintain perfect form. It also means all my exercises are repeatable so I can track progress in the knowledge I'm not cheating (for example speeding up the reps and not making true progress). Although my rep ranges are in the hypertrophy range, the short rest period and TUT tune my exercises more towards endurance. It works for me, I never get injuries, joint pain etc. I'm addicted to perfecting the exercises and making progress, and not ego lifting and packing on muscle and the risks associated with it. Everyone's different. All that matters is what you are interested in and what motivates you.

    Just remember that IRESTORE doesn't block the production of 5-alpha reductase and thereby stop the conversion of DHT. Just like minoxidil, an LLT-cap will promote blood circulation and prolong the anagen (growth) phase of the hair follicles. You will still lose hair at the same rate as before (even though it might not look like it at first). If you want to stop hair loss, you will need to use finasteride and, in some cases, dutasteride. Then u can regain ground with minoxidil, the LLT-cap (look for a cheaper option) and microneedling. You can also start using the ketokonazol shampoo aswell. But if you're contempt with just stopping hairloss. Finasteride and sometimes ketokonazol shampoo is enough.

    In philosophy, empiricism is an epistemological view which holds that true knowledge or justification comes only or primarily from sensory experience and empirical evidence.[1] It is one of several competing views within epistemology, along with rationalism and skepticism. Empiricists argue that empiricism is a more reliable method of finding the truth than purely using logical reasoning, because humans have cognitive biases and limitations which lead to errors of judgement.[2] Empiricism emphasizes the central role of empirical evidence in the formation of ideas, rather than innate ideas or traditions.[3] Empiricists may argue that traditions (or customs) arise due to relations of previous sensory experiences

    Muscular endurance can also be trained separately from strength and hypertrophy. In strength you get more neural adaptations that can better recruit muscle cells, in endurance you get more blood vessels that can deliver more oxygen and flush out products made from reactions in the muscle to generate force.

  • @livephysiology
    @livephysiologyАй бұрын

    Another theory as to the magnitude of changes in both size and strength is the genetic ceiling theory. This is the idea that considering there is a limited amount of strength to be gained, there is a proportional limit to the size a muscle can gain. After all, it would not be beneficial for muscle to be able to grow infinitely, such as having a forearm that is two miles in diameter. Thus, as one gets closer to the maximal strength the muscle is capable of gaining, the size gains proportionately slow.

  • @liezldoman481

    One thing that I've learned over the years of gaining muscle strength and then losing it (various reasons) repeatedly is that the higher reps exercises conditions muscles better for strength in the long run. I'm a small human (1.64m tall and just below 60kg). I've been active all my life and in 2013 I started to lift for strength. 2014 my circumstances changed and I couldn't lift anymore. I lost most of my gained strength in less than 4 months. Later, 2018 I started to lift for strength again and due to illness restricting my exercise, I lost strength really quickly again. 2022 I started working as a movement education coach and have slowly built up my strength over 2 years. I was ill last year again (chronic disease) and after 4 months I returned and lost only a very small percentage of my strength. I joined my friend at the gym the other day and I can lift heavier loads now than I could when I was gyming for strength. Just by doing little bits every day at work rather than pushing my 1 rep max like I used to.

As we know hypertrophy (cellular growth) is the only phenomenon to explain muscles growing in terms of its size, but what about the hardness of firmness of a muscle? It’s still a result of hyper trophy, but why does it vary- is it genetics only? Is it the type of training? More info on this would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

    If you want to get big, do relatively heavy compound movements and eat 1g of protein per pound of lean body weight. Lift minimum 3 days per week. Each set should be to near failure. I like 10 reps per set. Isolation exercises are for refinement or muscle imbalances. Do them only if you must. Compound is the most efficient for over-all size.

    It would be interesting to throw in a third approach, namely things like calisthenics with very high reps. They tend to be the opposite of isolation and involve many of the muscles, especially the core. The more well known of these types of exercises are pushups, planks, pullups, deep squats, etc., with reps ranging from 15 to over 100, depending. Very different outcomes than either power lifting or body building. Not the way to get huge, but the best way to develop functional strength.
