All the research so far is on young, experienced male lifters — we don’t know if drop sets work the same for women, older people, or beginners.

We don’t know if drop sets work the same way for women, older people, or people who’ve never lifted weights — all the studies were on young men.

It’s not clear if drop sets work better for people who already lift weights versus beginners — the study had too few participants in each group to tell.

We only know how drop sets affect the arms and thighs — we don’t know if they work the same way on your back, chest, or calves.

Even if you do the same total amount of work, drop sets don’t make your muscles grow more than regular sets — whether you match the weight lifted or not, the results are about the same.

When you train your quads, drop sets don’t make the outer thigh muscle grow more than regular sets — both methods make it grow about the same.
