High weight low reps low weight high reps shitposting

It was recently shown that there is no significant difference between the two

But how come when I go to the gym, I can't actually even 1 rep 80s while I can do 40x20?

>why can't I carry this bag of two tons of sand when i can easily carry it one cup at a time??

image is false
>>42380200
also false

myoelectric studies have proven the optimal rep range for hypertrophy is 6 to 10 reps for most muscle groups

That's not a very good analogy. I don't think it would be easy to pick up a ton of sand one cup at a time either.

>>42380473
It'd take a long time but anyone could easily do it if given enough time.

>>42380379
were these studies done on people who never worked out?

It's obviously assumed that you would be picking up cup after cup without any breaks since that's how lifting works...you wouldn't sit down to drink a cup of lemonade between pick ups. There's no way that would be an easy task

>>42380200
Of course there is a difference or bodybuilders wouldn't use such high rep ranges and high volume.

Low volume, low rep, long pauses = best for strength.

High rep, high volume, short pauses = best for gains.

>one workout takes 30 minutes
>one workout takes 3 hours

That alone is significant

It's all about preference honestly. I know people on both sides of the aisle that have made great gains.
