Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg
The Correlation Between Strength and Muscle Size
strength is essentially the sum of your muscle size multiplied by the efficiency of the nervous system in controlling that muscle. If you train for maximal strength with low volumes you can develop a lot of strength via neural mechanisms so basically the brain and the nervous system become more efficient to perform that movement. But on the flip side if you very high repetitions and you do a lot of generalized training you can make your muscles a lot bigger but they won't develop that specific strength in those exercises. It's true there is a big difference especially in the short term between strength and muscle size in the long term.
