Just because an EMG study shows higher EMG amplitude does not necessarily guarantee that there is greater muscle activation (although this is most likely assuming the procedure was carried out correctly). In my videos, I typically use the phrase “muscle activation“ as an approximation to shortcut this bit of nuance. However, greater muscle activation still doesn’t guarantee greater hypertrophy over time, as there are situations when muscles can hypertrophy in the absence of activation (such as when being stretched). Still, in my opinion, if all else is equal, there is good reason to think that more activation should lead to better muscle growth than less activation. At this point, there is a big question mark in the literature as to just how much EMG evidence lends credence to long-term muscle hypertrophy. Based on some correlations in the data, I suspect that it is actually more useful than some of the online fitness community seems to think at this moment in time, but skepticism should still be exercised. In this video, I am not using EMG evidence to say “Exercise X is better than Exercise Y“ but rather to illustrate individual differences in muscle recruitment with varying techniques. ------------------------------- Filmed by Matt Dziadecki Edited by Jeff Nippard Music from Epidemic Sound: Damma Beatz - Love Me More More music from: Bankrupt Beats - Swamp Head ------------------------------- About me: I’m a Canadian natural pro bodybuilder and internationally-qualified powerlifter with a BSc in biochemistry/chemistry and a passion for science.
