The Science of Lean Muscle Growth: Key Factors for Strength and Definition
Building lean muscle is more than just lifting heavy weights; it's about understanding the science behind muscle growth. Here's how it works:
Key Factors for Lean Muscle Growth:
Muscle Fiber Activation: To grow lean muscle, you need to activate both slow-twitch (endurance) and fast-twitch (strength) muscle fibers. Engaging in a combination of strength and endurance training can ensure both types of muscle fibers are worked.
Muscle Tension: Strength training generates tension in the muscle fibers. The greater the tension, the more stimulus for muscle growth…..
