LIGHT WEIGHTS VS HEAVY WEIGHTS for Muscle Growth (science-based)

What builds more muscle – heavy weights and low reps or more reps with lighter weight?

If you take a look at a standard personal trainer textbook you’ll find a very structured rep range continuum stating that 1-5 reps builds strength, 6-12 reps are good for hypertrophy and 12+ reps are good for muscle endurance.

But is there any truth to this? Well, yes and no. For starters, there’s plenty of research showing you can build muscle with both light and heavy weights, using a variety of rep ranges. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.

In this video, we go over everything you need to know about ideal rep ranges and how heavy you should train for optimal muscle growth.
