Five separate goals are discussed below, but a program could have more than one goal as long as you realize that each one may not be fully realized. The ability to produce maximum force. Best trained by using high weight and low reps. In practical terms, strength x speed. I ncreasing the size of the muscles and associated tissues.
People respond very differently to training with respect to hypertrophy.
The ability to lift a particular weight or resistance many times. Best trained by using moderate to light weight and many repetitions. The ability to deliver oxygen to working muscles and tissues over an extended period of time. While weight training is not the optimal way to increase CVE, some increases in CVE are even seen in heavy weightlifters. The greatest changes in CVE occur with high volume and low intensity with limited rest periods.
