The Effect of Tension on Hypertrophy Training

There's a huge big tent approach to proper hypertrophy training that allows you to check all three boxes in almost every set. When you produce a lot of tension and you go close to failure, you got a crap load of metabolites anyway. And guess what happens? You get a pump. The bodybuilders that train without going through a deep stretch with poor center control might have to do six sets of leg extensions to get the same growth they get out of four sets with good quality. That means they have to stress their joints one and a half times as much.
