** The "Hypertrophy Rep Range" Explained **

https://www.strongerbyscience.com/hypertrophy-range-fact-fiction/amp/

I agree with this wholeheartedly, personally. These are the ranges and weights I've been using recently and have had a dramatic effect. Also, within the recommended ranges (and by using a variety of ranges with lots of sets) it gives a great balance of strength and hypertrophy training. Stronger AND bigger? Win-win! 😁

"Essentially, I think people have gotten the cause and effect mixed up:  It’s not that there’s something magical about the “hypertrophy range” that makes it meaningfully better than other intensity ranges when other training variables are controlled for. It’s that simply being able to do more hard training tends to produce better results, and most people tend to be able to do the most hard training when they do the majority of their work in that intensity range."
