    First applies to isolation exercises, second applies to compounds. Not everything is black or white, you know moron?

    Want strong? Lift heavy, few.
    Want big? Lift light, lot.

    Better for what, idiot? You lift accordingly depending on your objectives

    8 reps is the sweet spot for adding muscle
    less reps for strength, more reps for endurance
    adjust weight accordingly

    heavier weight builds character but anything in the 5-30 rep range will have good effects
    i keep compounds in the 4-8 range (aside from the occasional heavy single) and everything else in the 10-15 range

    Heavy weights a few times and then once the muscles are torn up then light weight many times.

    What are your goals?

    Ultimately, it is safer as a human to lift lighter weights more times. This training will lead to less risk and easier maintenance.

    This is one of those things that's been in exercise books for 50 years but it's still true. 8-12 reps are the most specific reps you can do if you're trying to grow.

    As long as you reach hypertrophy, it doesn't matter. But doing lots of reps with light weight obviously takes more time than doing 8-12 reps

      Is it better to lift lighter weight more times or heavier weight less times?

      Torn on this. I’d say do both. But even frauding I do 5-8 with as good a form as possible and that’s gotten me better results than 12-15. I’ve gotten up to 80 on incline curl with good form and my biceps are the biggest they’ve ever been by a significant margin. I got to 20 reps+ with 52s doing the same exercise and it was a fricking nightmare and decently effective but I’ve still had better results doing 5 of 80. I do multiple variations though. I think people who just do low reps of a few exercises usually don’t look good.

    You should do both and also note that if you get from 15 reps to 20 reps you have gotten stronger as well as getting from 4 reps to 8 reps with a different weight. This is probably a factor in many programs but I internalized it from 5/3/1.

    It depends on your goal homosexual.
    For strength and force: speed (less weights).
    For hypertrophy: lift to failure (doesn't matter if heavy or light, but you reach failure with heavy faster, thus shorten the time needed for workouts).

    its easier to get more volume in with light for more reps. i.e. 80kg for 5 is 400 total, whereas 50kg for 10 is 500, 12 is 600, 14 is 700, et cetera

    Muscle fatigue can't read the number on your barbell or count your reps. Just work hard and stay consistent

    i go for strength with compounds and hypertrophy with isolations. i think i get good results when i'm consistent, but it's obviously not as good as if i picked one or the other

    failure between 6-26 is ideal.
    high weight low rep for big muscle groups. using muscle is an athletic skill that you learn when trying to lift impossible weights and such. You learn to "explode". as in the wise words "I am full range, a t o m i c"

    as heavy as you can for 8-12 reps x 3.
