aesthetics is very objective - look like a greek god

strength can be to impress your grandma, or lift the heaviest weight a human has ever lifted.

And the latter do not look aesthetic.

You're just repeating the same thing I'm shooting down without explaining why you're right and I'm wrong.

Because some people lift more yet look way worse than people who lift less, simply because the latter use isolation and other muscle building techniques.

I've got a friend who lifts around 50kg more than me in all the compounds, yet have way less muscle mass. 3cm less circumference around arms, small pecs, no abs, etc....

> Isn't it basic logic?

no, it isn't retard

strength comes from your CNS. Hypertrophy requires a certain amount of tension for the muscle tissue to repair stronger. This makes your muscles bigger and makes you lift a tiny bit more, but the amount of force and strength your brain tells you to give your muscles is controlled by your CNS

They are not one and the same. If you train with low volume you will struggle and your CNS will adapt by giving you more strength. If you train with high time under tension your muscle fibers will tear and rebuild, bigger. Both are worked in both training routines, but one more so

where did you learn that? i learned in college that strength is determined by cross sectional area of the muscle. if you lift heavy you'll add more parallel sarcomeres AKA hypertrophy. strength isn't "given to the muscles by the CNS", it's a physical property of the muscle. you can create a maximal contraction by recruiting more muscle fibers with your nervous system but that's called working to failure and AFAIK it's pretty much required in every session in order to adapt and grow more sarcomeres
