My theory is that bodybuilders develop alot of bood vessels and big blood vessels that takes up alot of space in the muscle. This is why so many budybuilders believe in blood volume training but they don't really know why. Yes the blood volume training increases size of the type 2 medium twich fibers aswell but mainly it's for developing larger cardiovascular system that takes up space within the muscle.
Yes, this theory is called "sarcoplasmic hypertrophy". How much it contributes to size I don't know but I'm sure it does to some degree.
You can build lots of muscle doing "blood volume training", "high repping" etc but none of it means that load isn't an important stimulus for actual increase in the protein component of muscle tissue.
Just because you acknowledge that strength and size are related, and EVERYONE believes this in reality no matter what they say, it doesn't mean you advocate ballistic low rep training with "heavy" weights. It just means that the higher the load the higher the hypertrophy stimulus,
all things being equal. You have to weigh the benefits of chasing numbers against the risks of injury.
Kai Greene... he's not a "weightlifter" and "weight means nothing"... then what the fuck is he doing in the above videos?
