It’s the process of adding new sarcomeres in series—the fundamental contractile units of muscle—so your muscle fibers get longer, not just thicker.

Why does this matter?

When you train at long muscle lengths (think deep lunges, RDLs, or assisted stretching under tension), you stimulate sarcomerogenesis.

That means: • Increased flexibility and strength • Greater force production across a full range of motion • Better joint resilience • Lower injury risk • More functional muscle growth—not just size for show

Whether you’re an athlete or just want an Athletic Aesthetic Physique—long-range training is key.

This is how you build muscle that performs AND looks elite. Don’t just get big. Get capable.

Save this and tag a training partner who skips their stretches 🧘🏽‍♂️💪🏼

I follow exercise scientists and read the new research they publish.

I started my fitness rabbit hole in 2014.

Wish I would have discovered Bitcoin then lol.

I used to follow this stuff pretty closely too, but haven’t been for a while.

YT videos get embedded inside the SN post, so you can watch them here without having to navigate to YT.com. This is not the case with IG videos.

PS: Great video!

This!

I still subscribe to the YT channel to support, but it’s a better SN experience 💯
