If you aren't sled dragging, then you are missing out on

Most studies suggest an undulating approach leads to
superior strength gains as compared with a linear approach but, as stated above, this may not always be the case.
The result is less time away from training which means
superior strength gains.
Wide - spread gym wisdom tells us that focusing on the eccentric portion of the lift is everything when it comes to muscle hypertrophy while emphasizing the concentric phase can produce
superior strength gains.

superior results in terms of increased lean body mass, decreased body fat and
strength gains, compared to weightlifting without adequate HMB supplementation.
Research has shown that whey protein isolate, which is a low - fat, low - carb and fast - absorbing source of protein, leads to
superior gains in muscle mass and
strength and causes less fat storage than other types of whey protein.

gain superior strength which is opposite the high volume plan.

superior benefits in terms of muscle growth and
strength gains than partial squats.
But, as Bret Contreras, the Glute Guy points out, you can't say that one exercise is
superior to another for hypertrophy and
strength gains based solely on EMG data.
Full body workouts are
superior for increasing your testosterone release, burning up body fat, boosting the metabolic rate, and enhancing
strength gains because you'll be forced to focus more on the moves that matter — compound exercises.

superior for muscle and
strength gains.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training under neutrally stable conditions (such as during free weight training, especially using single - leg exercises) should lead to
superior gains in COD ability than
strength training using very stable (machines) or very unstable (stability ball) conditions.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training developing horizontal or lateral force production should lead to
superior gains in COD ability than
strength training developing vertical force production only.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training that focuses on the knee (and hip) extensors should lead to
superior gains in COD ability than
strength training that is more generally applied to the whole lower body.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training for the hip extensors and knee extensors with eccentric - only muscle actions or accentuated eccentric loading should lead to
superior gains in COD ability compared to conventional
strength training.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training at high speeds will lead to
superior gains in COD ability than
strength training at slow speeds.
Remember, higher reps and lighter weights didn't lead to
superior gains in size or
strength.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training of the hamstrings at long muscle lengths, and the quadriceps and gluteus maximus at short muscle lengths, should lead to
superior gains in sprinting performance than
strength training at other joint angles.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training that focuses on the (medial) hamstrings or the hip extensors more generally, and / or the hip flexors should lead to
superior gains than
strength training that is more generally applied to the whole lower body.
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training that develops horizontal force production with exercises that have an anteroposterior force vector (hip thrusts) will lead to
superior gains in sprinting performance than
strength training that develops vertical force production with exercises that have an axial force vector (squats).
Since
strength is specific, then:
strength training at high speeds will lead to
superior gains in sprinting performance than
strength training at slow speeds.
Firstly, they have made it clear that heavy loads are also
superior in young adult subjects with
strength training experience (Schoenfeld et al. 2015; Mangine et al. 2015; Morton et al. 2016), showing that training status does not affect the extent to which there is specificity of
strength gains on the
strength - endurance continuum.

gain a
superior bargaining position through the
strength of the evidence they have compiled and through their history of achieving excellent results at trial.
