1. EXERCISE DEPENDENT

Muscle growth is not dependent on particular exercise. You all are suggested not to follow any tom dick and harry suggestion.

You can go for other tools or resources whichever is available in your house.

2. HYPERTROPHY RANGE

Many people still thinks that it is compulsory that during exercise 8-12 reps is must but researchers says that if reps are under 1-30 then muscle growth is still possible.
