Hettinger researches from 1945 to 1961.
He found that for optimal strength gains you need 1 set of 1 rep (static/isometric contraction) per day at a low intensity. 6 seconds at 66% of the isometric 1RM (defined as a weight sustainable for 10 seconds). Low Intensity (but enough for full recruitment) + High Frequency = optimal gains !
*1 Rep at ~80% of 1RM per day is required for optimal stimulation / maximum adaptation.
