(#252) What's the difference between training for maximum muscular development and true strength training? Yes, this is often misunderstood. Thanks to a great question from Ian (one of our loyal listeners to the podcast), I wanted to answer this question in detail - especially since I'm a former bodybuilder. While it's true that resistance exercise will provide gains in strength and muscle, the way we manipulate training variables has a great deal to do with maximizing results in either area. I'll explain the key differences. Get value from this podcast? Then please take a minute to review the show. It’s fast and easy to do.

In general, the image below depicts differences between training for maximizing muscle mass versus training to maximize strength gains. There's more to it than this, but this represents a fundamental overview of where the differences begin. The evidence is highly suggestive that volume plays a key role in muscular development and there is still much more to be learned about volume-based periodization strategies.
