@North Coast Miller a question for you, if I may. I thought I'd put it here, but I'd be happy to make a new thread if you'd like.
Have you ever used dynamic tension, or researched/read into it? I have been seeing all the "social media hypertrophy PhD types" rambling on these days about "the amount of
hard sets you do determines hypertrophy." If I am understanding them correctly, this means you have to be bringing a muscle close to (if not all the way) to failure at least once a week, maybe more. By my thinking, that
should mean that you would also see good hypertrophy from isometrics (as you have, yes?). If that's the case, then why doesn't dynamic tension do it? Or does it, and I've not read the right sources....? I used to do quite a bit of DT back in my kung fu days, and it is definitely incredibly hard. So what's different about it tht it doesn't (seemingly) produce the same effects?
