Key Rules for Growth
[/ux_text]
[ux_text font_size=”1.25″ font_size__sm=”1″ line_height=”1.45″ text_color=”rgb(0, 0, 0)”]
- Train glutes 2–3×/week with 48+ hrs rest.
- Progressive overload isn’t just more weight — it’s better range & control.
- Recovery & nutrition are non-negotiable.
- Consistency wins.
