This separation of the size of a muscle, specifically, the cross-section of an individual muscle's fibers, on a single individual from those same fibers' strength is new information to the world, if true.

On a single individual, a muscle's size varies in direct, though not linear, proportion to its strength and visa-versa.

Between individuals of course a smaller muscle may be stronger than the same muscle on another individual.

Previous understanding was hypertrophy happened and as a consequence the muscle was stronger and, visa-versa, a muscle was stronger when hypertrophy happened and the two were consistently and directly related.

But what this research is saying is that, for a given unit of hypertrophy, there can be varying amounts of strength increase, depending on what type of training effected that hypertrophy.

Again, revolutionary, if true.
