You Don’t Need Heavy Weights to Get Strong

Turns out, you don’t have to grunt through massive weights to see results at the gym. A new study found that lifting light weights (even with more reps) builds muscle and strength just as well as heavy lifting. The real secret? Pushing yourself to muscle fatigue, no matter the weight. Plus, everyone’s body responds differently—so your gains might not look like your friend’s. Bottom line: Do what feels good, and you’ll still get stronger! #Fitness #FitnessMythBusted #StrengthTraining
