You know it's funny when you see people have conversations about strength. They throw around the word heavy without ANY conception of what that means. Hard is not heavy. Heavy is heavy. Ninety percent of these conversations you will see people arguing about what rep range, is BEST. And compare 20 reps squats with sets of 10 to 12 or just 6 to 7. Basically everything but truly heavy.
This is basically just a really big cluster set. The advantage of clustering is to take a weight that you would normally lift, for example, for 5 reps, and lift it 10 or even 15 times. (You would start out with a clustered set of 5 singles). OR EVEN HEAVIER. This is an excuse NOT to lift heavy but just FEEL like you are lifting heavy. There might be a specific goal in mind for this but I doubt the person writing it actually had one in mind. I mean, "higher threshold motor units" sounds like they want to effect absolute strength. The degree to which it works depends on the individual.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
