Reps Decoded:
Nobody tells you this when you start training seriously.
There's no magic number.
No perfect rep count written in stone somewhere.
But after 30 years of coaching, here's what actually works.
For max strength?10 to 20 reps per exercise.
For strength AND muscle at the same time?20 to 40.
Just want to build muscle?40 to 60.
Want to build your engine - your conditioning?60 to 100 reps or more.
Simple. Clear. Proven.
Not by a lab.
By decades of real training with real people who have jobs, start training seriously families, old injuries, and not enough sleep.
The reason most guys over 40 spin their wheels is not because they're lazy.
It's because nobody gave them a map.
This is the map.
