There's not much difference in hitting max at 12 and at 25, from anecdotal experience. The study corroborated that as well, even though with small n.

What do you mean by there’s no difference? The difference is in the relative load needed in each example.

  • Well of course you change the load, but the stimulus is interpreted the same way by the body. I didn't think the question was at that level.

    • > but the stimulus is interpreted the same way by the body

      That may be your intuition, but it’s certainly not everyone’s, hence the studies… Many people will intuit heavier weight = more effective.
