The “anabolic storm” is basic physiology ⬇️ Big compound lifts recruit so much muscle fibre at one that your body is forced to respond. As oxygen debt rises and lactate spikes, growth hormone surges and mTOR switches on. Your nervous system adapts first, improving recruitment and activation… and muscle hypertrophy follows. This global stress signal is why squats, dips, rows, deadlifts, overhead press, pull-ups and flat bench create disproportionate growth… and it’s why I focus on them. #soberfit
