As discussed above for both off - and in - season athletes, bodybuilding splits can be used to increase muscle mass, build the ability to perform and recover from more work, and ultimately allow athletes to
stimulate more muscle fibers.
And as a result of working out harder and longer,
you stimulate more muscle fibers for greater growth.
You can always use more weight on compound movements and with
that you stimulate more muscle fibers and send signals for more growth hormone production.What do you think, which exercise will target more muscle fibers — a dumbbell bench press or cable crossover?
Given the body «s ability to adapt with varying exercises allows you to
stimulate more muscle fiber recruitment, essentially working the muscle from different positions, planes and angles.
Keep in mind that although forced reps and dropsets, which are designed to help you squeeze few more reps out of your already drained muscles, can spur even bigger gains by producing greater metabolic stress, lactic acid and
stimulating more muscle fiber recruitment, these methods will also take an even greater toll on your body and shouldn't be used too frequently.
But there was a study showing that doing the concentric part of an exercise explosively (taking about 1 second) and lowering it slowly (about 3 - 4 seconds)
stimulates more muscle fibers, leading to a greater testosterone response.
These and similar BIG exercises
stimulate more muscle fiber, stir up more fat burning and muscle building hormones, and have more carry - over to real world and sporting activities than machines.
As the core musculature pulls the bar and band towards the floor; the mid-section continues to work harder and harder
stimulating more muscle fibers as the band stretches and the resistance increases.
Not exact matches
In the bodybuilding community, the rest - pause method is considered as an effective way to fatigue the
muscle fibers more deeply and
stimulate a greater force production than you would during a straight set.
Not to mention that decreasing the effects of the sticking point will increase the velocity of the bar and
stimulate the activity of the
more potent fast - twitch
muscle fibers, thereby promoting greater strength gains.
However, it's possible that high TUT may promote greater hypertrophy in slow - twitch
muscle fibers, which are
more fatigue - resistant than fast - twitch
muscle fibers and therefore can't be adequately
stimulated with short TUT and heavy loads.
Post Activation potentiation will make the actin and myosin in your
muscle fibers become
more receptive to calcium, which in turn will create faster contractions in the
muscle fibers and will
stimulate the nervous system to produce bigger force.
Multi-joint compound movements, like squats and bench presses, recruit
more muscle fibers stimulating greater GH secretion.
Just having a large mass of
muscle does not assure
more fibers will be
stimulated to generate power.
But sports science has also said that doing 1 rep with maximum weight will also
stimulate more red
muscle fibers (fast - twitch).
We termed this «Capillary Conditioning» to maximize the ability of the capillaries to deliver blood in and out of
muscle cells to prepare the athlete to be able to lift more weight, with more repetitions / work by stimulating development of Type llA Fast Twitch Muscle Fiber (Fast Oxidative / Glycolytic or FOG) and less buildup of bulky muscle tissue which is poorly conditioned for aerobic capacity (Type llX Fast Twitch or FG muscle f

As the machine causes you to vibrate, practically all your
muscle fibers are
stimulated; this act of stimulation causes blood to pump through your blood vessels with
more efficiency, particularly your capillaries.
By consuming
more fiber, the stool bulk increases and
stimulates the colon wall, promoting the contraction of
muscles and pushing the stool through the rectum.
