Lifting weights just twice a week for two months is enough to make the upper and middle parts of your thighs bigger—even if you change how you do the sets, as long as you do the same total work.

If you lift weights twice a week for 8 weeks and do the same total amount of work, your upper and middle thighs will get thicker — no matter what fancy technique you use.

When people do the same total amount of lifting work, whether they use rest-pause, drop-sets, or regular sets, their upper and middle thighs grow about the same.

When people who already lift weights do drop sets or rest-pause sets instead of regular sets—while doing the same total amount of work—they don’t get bigger thigh muscles any faster or more than with normal training.

No matter which way you train—rest-pause, drop sets, or regular sets—if you do the same total amount of work for 8 weeks, your upper and middle thighs grow about the same.

Whether you use rest-pause, drop sets, or regular sets, as long as you do the same total amount of work, your thigh muscles grow about the same size after 8 weeks of training.
