    What I meant by that was more strength would naturally = more muscular endurance (simply because you'd be capable of lifting a light load for more reps). If an athlete cannot improve their muscular...
  5. Different types of strength and how to train for them

    I suppose I'd prefer free association over direct answers because there's always something interesting to learn from general discussion...

    I'd say the optimum weight category for 5'6-5'8 weightlifters is -77kg. Mostly because of Lu Xiaojun, but the vast majority of the A and B groups were within that height range. It gets higher and...
