What rep range is best for muscle growth?

The ideal rep range for muscle growth can vary based on individual factors and training goals. However, here are some commonly recommended rep ranges:

8-12 reps: This range is often considered optimal for hypertrophy (muscle growth) and is widely used in resistance training programs. It strikes a balance between lifting heavier weights and achieving muscle fatigue.

5-10 reps: Some experts suggest this range for maximizing sarcoplasmic hypertrophy (increasing the volume of energy-supplying tissue in the muscle) and overall muscle growth. It’s effective for both strength and size gains.
