The key to bigger muscles 💪
Swipe to learn the science-backed priorities that actually build muscle.
Whether you’re new to weight training or chasing that next level of size and strength, master these 5 and your gains are guaranteed to follow:
1️⃣ Mechanical Tension. Lift with control through a full range of motion, appropriately challenging yourself often.
2️⃣ Train Close to Failure. The last few reps before failure are where growth happens. Don’t stop too soon.
3️⃣ Adequate Volume & Frequency. 10–20 hard sets per muscle per week = your sweet spot.
4️⃣ Nutrition. Eat in a small surplus (+200–500 kcal) and hit 1.6–2.2g protein/kg bodyweight daily.
5️⃣ Recovery & Consistency. Sleep 7–9 hours, manage stress, and stay consistent for months/years, not days.
