heavy weights can help build muscle and
strength but they are not required if
your goal is to build larger muscles
there's a way to use your nervous system
to trigger hypertrophy to increase the
size of those muscles about five sets
per week is what's required just to
maintain your muscles if you're somebody
who's kind of averse to resistance
training you are going to lose muscle
size and strength your metabolism will
drop your posture will get worse
everything in the context of nerve to
muscle connectivity will get worse over
time unless
so when we think about muscle we don't
just want to think about muscle the meat
that is muscle but what controls that
muscle and no surprise what controls
muscle is the nervous system if your
goal is to build larger muscles there's
a way to use your nervous system to
trigger hypertrophy to increase the size
of those muscles and it is indeed
controlled by the nervous system so you
can forget the idea that the muscles
have memory or that muscles grow in
response to something that's just
happening within the muscle it's the
nerve to muscle connection that actually
creates hypertrophy weights in a very
large range of sort of percentage of
your maximum anywhere from 30 to 80% so
weights that are not very light but are
moderately light too heavy can cause
changes in the connections between nerve
and muscle that lead to muscle strength
and muscle hypertrophy put differently
heavy weights can help build muscle and
strength but they are not required what
one has to do is adhere to a certain
number of parameters just a couple of
key variables that I'll spell out for
you and if you do that you can greatly
increase muscle hypertrophy muscle size
and or muscle strength if that's what
you want to do and you don't necessarily
have to use heavy weights in order to do
that if you want to get stronger it's
really about moving progressively
