Meilleure citation de From Sandow to Science: Hypertrophy's Evolution
Whether you're doing sets of 5 reps at 85% of your one-rep max or sets of 15 reps at 65%, you can achieve similar hypertrophy as long as you're pushing close to muscular failure. The key is recruiting and fatiguing as many muscle fibers as possible.
