Many folks ask the age-old question – is a bigger muscle a stronger muscle? In this piece we dive into the nitty gritty science of getting stronger in order to find out.

Writing a solid training program is one of the most nuanced tasks in the fitness field. How can you go about creating your own program? We’ll get into the nitty gritty in this series.

The mind-muscle connection is a popular strategy for bodybuilders but it may not be best for strength athletes. This study found that force production was reduced when subjects used the mind-muscle connection.

Many bodybuilders use multiple exercises and implements to train the shoulders. This study found that using dumbbells caused more shoulder activation than using barbells.

Bodybuilders will often use front squats and back squats interchangeably in their training and this study supports that practice. Front squats cause similar levels of quad activation and require less weight to do so.

One way to improve your squat performance is by using a weightlifting belt. A good belt can help increase power production and won’t lower core activation like many people think.

The current recommended protein intake for athletes more than likely isn’t enough protein for the bodybuilder trying to maximize muscle growth. Some studies are showing greater gains with higher protein intakes.

Many athletes and recreational trainers use static stretching as their pre-workout warm up. Is this the best practice to prepare for sports or lifting?
