Makes sense. Both exercises are within the active-length curve. Torque profile may differ, but total/peak muscle force could be similar. Somehow need to get the mid delt into longer lengths to generate passive force & increase hypertrophy?

Nice job @StianLa07849895

Our new study, now in preprint, showed dumbbell and cable lateral raises elicit similar hypertrophy in the middle deltoid in trained men and women over 8 wks. Both modes appear to be viable options. Kudos to @StianLa07849895 for spearheading the project💪

Nice. Considering the force-length operating range of an exercise might be useful for hypertrophy.

The second part to consider is when long lengths correspond with high external joint torques - otherwise you’re just stretching.

Combined active + passive = optimal stimulus?
Really enjoyed this paper on the effect of range of motion on hypertrophic responses.

Anyone curious to learn about the length-tension properties of individual muscles should give this a read.
