depends on what you are trying to achieve, just do one of both every week, also depends on your routine.

Low rep for strength

High for size.

If you're intermediate, do PHUL to get both.
>>
I did my thesis and I did research for my doctorate on this

>low weight high reps allow for higher volume and cause gene expressions that allow for hypertrophy to occur
>long term progress is slower than...

>high intensity (80% 1rm) low volume which adds strength gains faster than the low intensity group, which after a long period if volume was higher in the first group, the heavy group will surpass the volume load (assuming reps x sets stay the same) within 6 months.

If volume load is the same in any group, the hypertrophy will be the same.

the same gene expression for muscular hypertrophy occurs to a lesser degree with less volume, and higher with more

I close with this:

why not just be strong AND look strong rather than look strong?
>>
Both

Why the fuck would you ever not do both

Both, my friend. You gotta do that concurrant training, it's gonna be a beautiful thing, I swear to you.

*sips lemonade*

>low rep high intensity on compound lifts
>high rep low intensity on isolation movements

And this isn't up for a debate. You do it like this and get the best of both worlds.
