Study after study after study shows you can build muscle in basically any rep range.

This is because muscles don’t recognize “reps” or “weight on the bar.”
They recognize tension.

When a muscle fiber is exposed to enough mechanical tension and enough motor units are recruited, growth is triggered.

That’s why a set of 5 heavy reps and a set of 25 lighter reps can both stimulate hypertrophy—as long as they’re pushed close to failure.

But here’s the catch—not all rep ranges are equally practical, especially for men over 40.

Some create unnecessary fatigue, others beat up your joints, and some simply aren’t sustainable long term.

That’s exactly what I want to share in this video: the most “overpowered” rep range for men our age.
