The Claim
In trained males over a 6-week period, no significant differences in neural adaptations, as measured by surface electromyography (sEMG) activity, were observed between strength-type, hypertrophy-type, and cluster-type resistance training regimens, suggesting that neural factors may not be the primary driver of differential strength gains.
What the research says
Not yet evaluated
We are still looking at what the research says.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Different workout styles for building muscle didn't show big differences in how the nerves responded in trained men over 6 weeks, meaning nerve changes might not be the main reason some workouts make you stronger than others.
