It's also like your neuromuscular, your neurons' ability to contract and recruit more muscle fibers and or produce more force output.

And it's trained by practicing that, right?

Like you kind of have to practice it to do it.

So that's strength training.

And there's a lot of benefits to strength training.

You get a lot of muscle fiber recruitment.

You're, you're getting, you want strength.

Strength's really important.

We lose strength as we age.

And you know, that's n it's a kind of independent characteristic sometimes of muscle size alone.

There is a pretty good relationship between having more muscle and being stronger, but strength can also be trained independently to some degree on its own, and it's important to train.

Um, but that intimidates a lot of people.

So you can do it at like more moderate rep ranges or lifting heavy relative to like what you're willing to do.

You don't all have to do one rep max powerlifting type Olympic weightlifting efforts to benefit from that.

And then we have hypertrophy, which, you know, historically hypertrophy got sold as you had to do like eight to twelve reps, and that's the hypertrophy range.

So for example, how many reps and sets or total sets you're doing across a week of training and things like that.
