Send us a text Strength adaptations come from morphological effects and neural effects. Morphological effects (mainly muscle growth) are why strength sports have weight classes. Assuming similar training styles, the more muscular athlete usually lifts more. However, neural effects are why world class female lifters are stronger than most men, despite having way less muscle. Neural effects are also why powerlifters aren't good at snatching, and weightlifters aren't good at jiu-jitsu. Neural ef...
