"Weightlifting: Light or Heavy for Muscle Growth?"

Building muscle mass through resistance training can provide numerous benefits for physical and mental health. Lifting to failure can be an effective way to stimulate muscle growth and strength gains, but it should be done with caution and combined with other training techniques. Hypertrophy refers to the increase in size and mass of skeletal muscle tissue that occurs as a result of resistance training. Consuming adequate amounts of protein and getting good quality sleep are also important for muscle growth and recovery.
