Is the biggest guy in the gym also the strongest guy in the gym? Not necessarily! Although strength and size are not mutually exclusive, we should not be confused between the two.
When we talk about strength, we are primarily looking at how heavy one can lift. On the other hand, muscles are simply measured in terms of muscle mass. Think of muscles as the total potential of strength you have, while strength is how well you are able to utilize your muscles.
Strength is a skill. And just like any other skill out there, it requires practice. The more you practice the movement, the better your body gets at it (improve neuromuscular adaptation, which leads to more motor unit recruitment).
Strength can also be highly dependent on biomechanics. Your body leverages also
play a huge role in how efficient you are at a particular movement. For example, someone
with a shorter femur might be more efficient at a squat compared to someone with a
longer femur.
Strength is best trained with higher intensity (85-100% of 1RM) and with ample practice of the movement pattern (many sets, and higher frequency).
In this e-book, we will be providing you with the tools you need to reach your goal of gaining strength and mastering movement efficiency.
