slow twitch
recruitment
your ability to recruit, to use
- greater number of units = greater strength
- 400-500 times to learn it perfectly
the overload principle
to increase strength a load that exceeds the metabolic capacity of the muscle must be used during exercise
endurance
low weights,high reps
strength
high weights,low reps,low speed
