Have you stopped making progress?😬
Yes, there are rep ranges that are better for different goals/ results… but all of them will eventually STOP working when you use it for too long. Your body will adapt and you will eventually hit a PLATEAU in your progress. On average it takes our bodies 4-6 weeks to fully adapt to a new stim
