Does lifting for strength result in a better physique? Most of the time I lift bodybuilding style, and just let the strength come when it wants to. But I'm wondering if I should try more targeted strength training. Does it help build a better physique? I see all the strength trainers with broken bodies and I get scared lol

no

Once I started training for strength my back came on alot.

Not if the diet is crap.
More muscle is always a good thing.

I think that guys that train solely for strength tend to have smallish arms

6 reps for strength 8 reps for mass 12 reps for cuts

Heavy weight low reps = Strength/mass
Lighter weight,higher reps = cuts/shape

In some ways yes. Ever seen the trap development on some elite powerlifters?

You can do both. Work up to a 6 rep max in any given exercise once a week for your chest days for example and alternate the excercise every 3 weeks to avoid CNS fatigue. Incline benches 3 weeks..dumbell benches 3 weeks... close grip benches 3 weeks and back to inclines. You wont get as strong as training in the 1-3 rep range but at least nobody will laugh at you when your big as fuck and weak as fuck.... 6 reps is definitely enough time under tension to build muscle and build maximal strength.

I love it when Getbiggers give serious responses to troll questions.

All my reps after warm up are 4,10,15.. I add 5 pounds to each set every workout. The few isolation movements I do are 8,10,12. Of course I have to keep track of my weights to know when to increase weight.

Strength = tren base and halo pre workout
