I have a question regarding an old topic and would appreciate it if anybody could chime in.Which type of muscular development(myofibrillar vs sarcoplasmic) does CBL enhance more? In other words is it better for increasing muscle density or muscle mass? I mean we all know GLUT4 is stimulated by heavy resistance training, but theoretically where would all the incoming carbs from an epic backload go if you haven't drained glycogen stores with high volume? It seems like one type of training stimulates GLUT4 but doesn't use up much glycogen while the other empties out your glycogen but doesn't do much for GLUT4?What is the best type of workout to set the stage for CBL to achieve that ripped, rock-hard physique? Personally I'm more after definition than I am mass. Size would be a welcome bonus but it's not my main priority. The football running back kind of look would be perfect.Thanks again for any input.
Hey man check out Kiefers article on anabolic cardio, he actually touches on the subject while discussing HIIT
If I read this correctly he's saying cycle your hiit where your on weeks you lift lighter weight higher reps. Then your off weeks are heavier and less.
Can you still CBL while on your higher rep/lighter weight cycle? For example would German Volume Training warrant backloads?

don't see why it wouldn't work out.. you may want to try the newer AGVT though where you do 5 reps instead of the 10http://www.charlespoliquin.com/ArticlesMultimedia/Articles/Article/261/A_Look_Back_and_Ahead_at_German_Volume_Training.aspx
I'm not sure how to specifically answer the original question but not sure if it is even relevant (with all due respect.)Check out this below. http://xbodyconcepts.com/non-functional-hypertrophy/
