Also, strength gains are not necessarily related to mass gains. Although, as ihateschool said, myofibrillar hypertrophy will lead to strength gains, you may also experience strength gains for various reasons related to neuromuscular efficiency. This type of adaptation doesn't directly add muscle mass. Your arm routine is kind of ridiculous. You don't need anywhere near that volume for your arms. I would do 1/3-1/2 of that volume. Layout the rest of your routine for us too. Tell us the split too. |
