muscles and can not do their job.
When you train «for the pump» (usually done by performing a

We have to understand that in order to gain
muscles, we have to make sure that, yes, our protein intake is quite
high but, more importantly, that we are lifting heavy weights in the gym following a consistent, efficient hypertrophy program that takes into consideration the
number of sets and repetitions, the tempo, the training volume, the time under tension, the duration
of rest between the sets, etc., etc..

It decreases perceived effort (makes exercise feel easier), makes you more resistant to fatigue, and especially with
high - intensity stuff like sprinting and cycling, increases power output and the
number of reps you can perform before failing, and last but not least, boosts strength and
muscle endurance.
As with the standard press up it is possible to build up to a
high number of repetitions quickly with this bicep exercise and although it works other
muscles (particularly the shoulders) it will develop biceps endurance.
The
higher number of reps works best for
muscle hypertrophy but is not as effective for building maximal strength, although your strength will increase as well as your
muscles grow.
For building endurance, you use a weight between 50 and 60 %

higher number of reps. Using this weight, you should be able to complete between 15 and 20 reps before your
muscles are thoroughly fatigued.
Those minimum recommended
numbers were designed to prevent disease and we know now that

of high - intensity exercise increase the size and
number of mitochondria inside
muscle cells and their efficiency.

numbers of muscle fibers to develop
higher levels
of strength.

numbers muscle fibers.
If your fibers in a particular
muscle consist primarily
of slow twitch fibers, in order to affect the greatest
number of those
muscle fibers, you'll need to train that
muscle with
higher reps, shorter rest periods and
higher volume.
We also need to focus on the appropriate
number of reps.. When a person is new to training or looking for
muscle hypertrophy (change), they often focus on
higher rep ranges — think 12 + and multiple rounds, at a 3 - 5 range.
