Interesting comments from CF:
Since lifting under the 80% will not interfere with the CNS envelope, can we use rep ranges that are higher and increase strength that way so we don’t drain the CNS but get strength
improvements?
I would say no for a couple of reasons:
1: You’d gain too much cross section if the reps were high enough to actually create any
challenge.
2: You’d risk running into the issues of intermediate intensity training.
3: You’d sacrifice an opportunity for recruitment enhancement.-
Guess all this talk about submax weights is nonsense?
