Okay, so high reps are supposed to give you more endurance and can burn more calories and help you get cut and all that stuff, but what exactly is the effect on the physical appearance of the muscle?
For instance, let's say I switch from a bulking diet to a cutting diet but I keep my routine the same- heavy weight/low reps, and I throw in the proper amounts of cardio. When I get my BF% lower, will my muscles still look the same as they would if I was doing low weight/high reps?
I've always been under the impression that high reps will bring out more striations and more definition in the muscle, but is this true? Can I get the same effect from doing heavy weight (as long as my diet and cardio are right)? I've always had better workouts with heavy weight/low reps so I don't want to be wasting my time for the next few months doing shitty high rep workouts if I can get the same effect by keeping it heavy.
Thanks,
