Absolute gains may nudge males just a hair (SMD = 0.19; 95 % HDI: 0.11–0.28), but relative growth from your baseline is virtually identical (Δ~0.7 %) ​– PMID: 40028215 “Our findings suggest healthy adult males and females can experience similar muscle hypertrophy following RT, and thus, may experience similar benefits from increases in muscle size… Considering RT experience may not influence sex differences in muscle hypertrophy, RT programs can follow similar structures for both untrained and resistance-trained males and females, with primary differences in RT prescription based on long-term goals (e.g., aesthetics or performance-based goals) and individual characteristics (e.g., enjoyment, perceptions of discomfort, preferences, stress tolerance, etc).” 🎯 A 2020 meta‑analysis found no significant sex-based difference in hypertrophy (ES = 0.07 ± 0.06;...
