    Bodybuilding style Lifting. Wish I knew that science based influencers are just using science as a gimmick to make new videos and bold claims for short form content.

    Lifting is hard when done right but its not super complex. The basics are the same they were decades ago:

    • be consistant and stick to a routine at least 6 months.
    • Learn the proper lift techniques
    • learn how to train to failure (failure is not mandatory every set but you need to know where it is in order to train close to it for adaptations to occur)
    • Keep progressing weights when you can without sacrificing technique. (Progressive overload is both the driver and the result of muscle growth, as long as your work sets are close to failure the growth stmilus is there)
