3 AM Max Bench Workout!!!

First of all 100 reps is not geared towards hypertrophy, that's almost cardio at that point.

Building muscle mass does build strength. Just look at elite powerlifters, as their weight goes up so does their strength.

I like to think of the opposite...as your strength increases so does your muscle mass...muscle is a by-product of strength...get ya strength up...

That's not how it works at all. Strength doesn't create muscle mass. How does strength increase if not it being an increase in muscle mass first?

Where does increased muscle mass come from in the first place if not for increasing strength to begin with?...Increase in strength occurs when lifting heavier weights at lower reps...that's how it works...you will naturally add the needed calories as needed for muscle growth as muscle growth stimulates appetite to keep up with said muscle growth...hope that helps!...The key is to add clean calories when bulking up...The point I'm making is to focus on strength instead of mass...if you are getting stronger...you are naturally getting bigger...the thing is not to be all steroid big!...

When you lift you put stress on your muscles and they adapt to that stimulus by increasing in size. Then when they are bigger you have more muscle fiber to utilize so you're stronger. You don't gain strength before muscle mass as you claimed.

I know how bodybuilding and power lifting work. There's nothing wrong with having lots of muscle mass.

I'ma let me my homie Greg explain it to you...

Muscle is a byproduct of strength ! Want to gain muscle, you need to be stronger.

This is precisely what my Greek God Program is crafted for.

If you focus your efforts on building your physique through strength gains, training is way more efficient.

You don't need to live in the gym. Your maximum rate of progress will be with 3 sessions per week.

What's more, when you achieve a killer physique, you won't just look amazing, you will be powerful, capable and physically threatening.

The most important takeaway I have for you in this article is that – muscle is a byproduct of strength. We build muscle as a functional response to training.

Using Kinobody as a reference, smh.

Alright, there are several kinds of strength adaptions and parameters for strength. To keep it simple, let's just focus on two.

One is the neurological adaptions. This is both in regards to movement efficiency (technique) and actually getting a stronger nerve signal to the muscle. With a stronger signal, you can recruit a larger number of muscle fibers and in turn you can lift more. This is often seen with so called "newbie gains" as the first adaption (as muscle size takes a little longer to build).

The other one is the cross sectional area of the muscle belly, or, muscle size. The bigger the muscle, the stronger it is.

So, if you increase your muscle size you increase your strength, but you can get an increase in strength without an increase in size as well. A lot of what happens at which point has to do with genetics and training methodology.

Then there are fiber types, inner moment arms, tendon strength and more that also influences strength, but we don't need to get into all that.

Muscle growth is a result of what???...Strength gains...

That's all I'm sayin' and kindobody is sayin'...what's so "smh" about that?...muscle is a direct response to training...DAMN...that's all I'm sayin'...people wanna write books in here and shit keep it simple!...

You know whats up my man. This guy "Hedonistic Frog" doesn't know what he is talking about at all lol. Don't waste your time with him.

That was kinda cringeworthy...
