Mechanistically I agree @red5performance ‘s theory makes sense, which is why I think it’s curious the evidence doesn’t play that out. Granted I’d like a longer term study that doesn’t rely on just EMG data. But right now all we have on the topic is Martin-Fuentes (2022), and Escamilla (2001). It could be that the differences are so small as to be irrelevant, but that’s also just a guess. #squat #hypertrophy #fittok
