  7. Cumulative muscle fatigue leading to muscle growth

    Aim: 100 total reps done over a series of sets with the final sets requiring maximum effort. Maximum effort leads to maximum muscle recruitment. How does this work? Performing high reps with a lighter load close to muscular exhaustion will add size to your muscles. This is made possible due...
