When talking about strength, Andy Galpin said it’s all about total force. So when strength training, is it more about training your nervous system through intensity, with fewer repetitions but as much frequency as you want? Am I correct in understanding that you are training the nervous system to recruit more fibers efficiently to produce higher total force? How did I do in understanding this concept?
