Beginners often hit a plateau because of an inefficient nervous system so they can't
recruit the high threshold growth fibers.
Jumps are great for increasing power and speed, as well as improving the ability of your athletes to
recruit high threshold motor units, which will have a positive impact on strength.
How it works:
Recruits the highest threshold motor units (power / strength) and increases the oxidative (oxygen) abilities of these fibers by supplying them with constant oxygen.
Not exact matches
Being able to lift heavy is a good way to maximally
recruit those
high -
threshold, fast - twitch muscle fibers!
Scientists tell us that muscular failure can actually change the PH balance of the blood in your muscle fiber, stopping the muscle group from
recruiting any important
high threshold fibers.
Untapped Muscle Building Target # 2: Heavy Lifting Cycles The reason it works: muscle damage, activation of the
high threshold muscle fibers (growth fibers), potentiation of the nervous system; which means when you get back to your normal bodybuilding routine you will be able to
recruit more muscle fibers for the same exercise.
All of them, unless it's SUPER light; if so, it may not
recruit some of the
highest threshold motor units.
