    How new are you that this is even a question you'd had to ask? Do you know what hypertrophy means and what causes it?

        Anon is talking about size in terms of lean muscle mass.
        The people who say strength = size are referring to their 350lb obese frame moving a barbell up and down for a single rep. "Mass moves mass" is another one they like to throw around.

        size and strength correlate, but aren't exactly 1:1
        Lifting weight is a whole chain of events, starting from brain signal to nervous system to muscle recruitment through nerve activation to muscle synchronous firing
        The size of the muscle is one piece of that chain, but you can (and do) improve strength by improving all events along that chain
        In not-that-extreme scenarios, you can isolate increasing strength without increasing muscle size and vice-versa
        You gain both strength and size lifting weights its not one or the other, but 5x5 improves strength more than it build muscle, while 3x10 builds muscle more than it improves strength

    It doesn't matter what rep range you do until you are benching 315 for reps.

    3x10 works fine when you slow down and get good form. For days when I want to get a good pump, I'll do 2x10 heavy and 2x10 light

    4x10-12 for beginners so they can learn the movement patterns, once you get stuck after few months you can play with it however you like, just keep in mind that doing more than 15 is moronic and doing less than 3 without spotter is probly a bad idea
