If you're already fit and lift weights, doing 5 to 10 sets per muscle group each week will make you stronger—but doing more than that (like 15 to 20 sets) won't make you any stronger, no matter how hard you push.

If you're already fit and lift weights, doing anywhere from 5 to 20 sets per muscle group each week will make you stronger and build more muscle — and it doesn't matter much which number you pick within that range.

If you're already fit and lift weights, doing way more sets (15–20 per muscle group per week) doesn't make you stronger faster—in fact, you might even gain less strength than if you stick to just 5–10 sets.

If you're already experienced with weight training, doing 5 to 10 sets per muscle group each week builds just as much muscle and strength as doing 15 to 20 sets—so going over 10 sets won't give you extra gains.

If you're already fit and lift weights, doing 5 to 10 sets per muscle group each week builds just as much muscle and strength as doing 15 to 20 sets—so going overboard doesn't help you get bigger or stronger faster.

If you lift weights the same total amount each week, it doesn’t matter if you do it in one big session or split into three smaller ones—you’ll get just as strong and build just as much muscle.
