More mass = more power = more weight.

6-7 sets 20 reps per muscle.


Power is likely to be very dependent on the nervous system. Pure tension is very highly correlated to muscle mass or pcsa but power is an expression of that tension over time and that depends on how quickly and efficiently your spinal motor neurons can sum tension

Given that power is speed roughly multiplied by strength, it's easier to just say that its expression depends on whether or not you're lifting hard and fast ... which is a less technical way of saying you've been training your mass to rip from tension. e: I agree with you that it's dependent on the nervous system. An example of theory put to practice: https://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/xcell2.htm

Also, because some very strong people don't move quickly, and because many quick people aren't strong, a lot of folks miss out on optimal power development. I've seen this problem in trained athletes time and time again. The same goes for athletes not doing enough work on agility and coordination.

no its not, and that article is just buzzwords and non-sense. power is EXACTLY velocity * force. youre talking about something thats completely different from me

Plot twist: powerlifting is not actually 'powerful' lifting, its strength lifting

So I've decided that I'm going to squat 2x a week.

one time on leg day , high volume

the other on shoulder day just 5 reps increasing weight later in da week.
