Training Variables

In optimizing muscular strength we should always include meaningful manipulation of training variables, such as number of sets, intensity, rest intervals, speed of contraction, days per week, number of exercises, form, age, gender, the effect of other activities, rest, sleep and more.

Exercise movements and a wide variety of exercise devices augment development, as well. The inclusion of single-joint exercises are important considerations in maximizing growth as they optimize the targeting of specific muscular areas, are used to correct imbalances, and are part of the rehabilitative process.
