The Claim
In resistance-trained men, both Myo-Reps and traditional resistance training protocols result in significant increases in muscle size and strength over an 8-week period.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In men who regularly lift weights, both Myo-Reps and traditional training methods lead to measurable increases in muscle size and strength after 8 weeks.
See the scientific wording
Resistance-trained men experience significant increases in muscle size and strength over 8 weeks using either Myo-Reps or traditional training, indicating that both methods are effective for maintaining adaptations in trained individuals.
When muscles are worked hard, the force they produce and the burning feeling from buildup of waste products signal the muscle fibers to make more proteins and recruit helper cells to repair and grow bigger.
What the research says
1 studyBoth training methods — Myo-Reps and traditional sets — helped men get stronger and build muscle equally well over 8 weeks, even though Myo-Reps took less time. So yes, either one works fine for staying strong and muscular.
