NOTE

Embrace Diverse Rep Ranges for Muscle Growth

Muscle growth can be achieved through various rep ranges, as both low (10 reps at a higher weight) and high repetitions (30 reps at a lighter weight) can yield similar results, provided that the last few reps are challenging. This flexibility allows for effective training with a range of weights and doesn’t necessitate owning overly heavy weights. The key is to avoid weights that are either too light, allowing for endless repetitions, or too heavy, limiting the ability to complete a few reps. Generally, performing 5 to 30 challenging reps is beneficial for muscle development. For beginners, engaging in two sessions per week can be sufficient to stimulate growth, adapting the frequency based on prior experience.
