So we know about the generic rep ranges for strength, hypertrohpy, endurance.
So my question is: If you are coming back from an injury (ligament related) and working up the weights slowly with much higher reps (15+ for endurance basically) is there any point in being in a surplus diet wise?
The way I see it is that you won't be able to gain any muscle because the stimulus provided would be too low (50% of 1rm or less I would think) but I guess that depends on how long the person has trained for.
Any benefits for ligament/tendon healing by being in a surplus as opposed to a deficit?
