And :
Several pioneering studies indicated
that training with loads corresponding to 1–6 RM (mostly 5–6 RM) was most conducive to increasing maximal dynamic strength (22,201). Although significant strength increases have been reported using
loads corresponding to 8–12 RM and lighter
this loading range may be inferior for maximizing strength in advanced lifters (96).
Research examining periodized
Contrary to early suggestions of 6 RM loading, it appears that using a variety of training loads is most conducive to maximizing muscular strength.
Meta-analytical data have shown that 60% of 1 RM produced the largest effect sizes for strength increases in novice individuals whereas 80% of 1 RM produced the
largest effect sizes for strength increases in trained individuals

This meme needs to fucking die.
Edit that sticky for the beginners

every scientific study i have ever seen on weight training is horseshit and they are all contradictory. I'm happy just following the advice of someone who has coached people for decades

So listen to coaches like nuckols and sheiko who coach serious strength sport competitors instead of a fat retard who coaches high schoolers and old people.
