Could you be a spartan?

When I say normal muscle growth, I mean any form of training. It doesn't need to be weight training.

However, one must see the difference between amount of muscle growth between a weight training program and a boxexercise routine.

One thing I missed out. During the first 2 mths, there is an increased recruiting of muscle fibres for those muscles that you have been training. This is because you trained to use those nervous endings that trigger muscle movement, that you had never used before.

I'm not sure how you actually think this answers my question. The neural adaptations are well understood at this stage of the game... but I'm asking you what you mean by 'normal' muscle growth. Tell me the difference.

I doubt you'll be answering this since it seems you're not around here anymore.

That's why you see an increase in strength and 'tightness' in your muscle, but not the girth of your biceps for eg.

When it comes to roid usage, it actually shorten the2 mths needed for actual muscle growth.

Can I ask why you speak as if you were expert in this subject when it's obvious you aren't?

Sounds rude, I'm sure, but I am genuinely curious.

It's ok. I am just speaking based on what I have learned in my sports biomechanics class. I am sure people will fault me if I am wrong. This thread interested me so I just give my 2 cents worth. Cheers.

I guess I haven answer your question about normal growth, though you should know better than me about this. Normal growth means muscle taking it's usual neural adaptation-> muscle fiber thickening -> increase in fiber density, instead of jumping straight to the last stage. Fault me if I am wrong.
So we can learn.
 
I know neural adaptation is not myofibre growth I am just saying it's the 'normal' process that the body takes. It's two different aspect of muscle science but it's correlated to muscle growth.
 
I thought I knew a thing or two about the subject at hand....

However, I can't follow you at all.

It's me, probably.

Not you.
 
I've done some similar stuff.... but that way of training isn't conducive at all to any of my current goals.
