Question

2 which of the following would be beneficial for a training session designed to build muscular strength? a high repetitions/low resistance b high repetitions/high resistance c low repetitions/high resistance d low repetitions/low resistance

Explanation:

Muscular strength training relies on challenging muscles with heavy loads to stimulate adaptations that increase force production. Low repetitions (typically 1-6 per set) paired with high resistance (heavy weight, 80-95% of one-repetition maximum) is the standard protocol, as it targets the muscle fibers responsible for maximal force output. High repetitions with low resistance builds muscular endurance, while the other combinations do not effectively target strength gains.

Answer:

C. Low repetitions/high resistance
