OK, so for double kettlebell front squats... I would not expect much difference in adaptation between 5x5 vs. 8 sets of 3. The stimulus comes from giving your legs (and whole body, really) a certain amount of work at a hard-ish weight. Not much difference probably between the two scenarios. Although, worth noting, you get in 3 more double kettlebell cleans in with the 8 sets than you do with 5 sets!
True!
