Keywords: Resistance Training mechanical tension metabolic stress and muscle damage.

Abstract:
Muscle hypertrophy is primarily influenced by three key mechanisms: mechanical tension metabolic stress, and muscle damage. Training with heavy loads (above 85% of one-repetition maximum, or 1-RM) is particularly effective at producing mechanical tension and building strength. On the other hand, using moderate loads (typically 60–80% of 1-RM) in combination with shorter rest periods tends to increase metabolic stress, which supports muscle growth. Interestingly, lifting lighter loads (60% of 1-RM or less) to the point of failure can also lead to similar hypertrophic gains, although this approach generally requires greater training volume to be effective. Several advanced training methods—such as accentuated eccentric loading (AEL), blood flow restriction (BFR), cluster sets, supersets, pre-exhaustion, and drop sets—offer diverse stimuli for muscle growth and can be strategically implemented depending on an individual’s goals, experience level, and training preferences. While techniques like AEL and BFR provide unique advantages under specific conditions, traditional resistance training remains highly effective when key variables such as intensity and volume are properly managed.
