As I transition into a more data-driven training block, I'm looking to refine my tracking methodology beyond simple caloric counting. For those of you prioritizing hypertrophy through evidence-based principles, which applications are you currently utilizing to monitor trend weight and expenditure? I've been considering MacroFactor due to its adherence to metabolic logic, but I'd appreciate any community insights on its efficacy compared to manual spreadsheet tracking. Furthermore, if anyone can recommend comprehensive textbooks or journals specifically regarding mechanical tension and its relationship to sarcomere length-tension relationships, I would be highly appreciative
