@MikeMakher @YFCphysio @jennifervin @CraigPhifer and sure some studies show heavier loads are superior as well https://t.co/t23NUdyd1G But we certainly can't argue that 3x10 will not achieve strength gains. What is superior is up for debate though

What people are saying
Discussions reflect a balanced interest, with posters referencing the study and related research, such as Campos, while debating whether high-rep or low-rep regimens are more effective. The tone varies from informational to skeptical, but overall shows engagement with the research's practical implications for resistance training.
Most participants acknowledge the findings of the study, with some referencing support from other research like Campos et al. (2002).
Discussions demonstrate a moderate level of curiosity about the implications for training practices and literature, with some participants reflecting on their own experiences.
Comments include references to specific studies, personal reflections, and debate over training methods, showing active involvement.
The conversations highlight how the study influences ideas about training regimes, suggesting a shared understanding of its relevance to strength and endurance development.
Abstract in brief
- The study investigated how different resistance training regimens with varying repetitions affect muscle strength, endurance, fiber composition, and aerobic capacity in untrained men over 8 weeks.
- Maximal strength improvements were greatest in the low repetition group, while the high repetition group showed the most improvement in muscular endurance and aerobic capacity, with hypertrophy observed mainly in low and intermediate rep groups.
- The results suggest that training with low reps enhances strength, whereas high reps improve endurance and aerobic performance, highlighting the specificity of training adaptations based on repetition zones.]

@mackinprof I read the chapter while working on my book. I thought other studies supported it, such as Campos et al. (2002), but I could be mistaken as I no longer have the book. https://t.co/ygolg92bqH
