For years, there has been a widespread misconception that weight training will make women bulky.

Studies find that doing more sets leads to more growth up to a point. Doing too much can have the opposite effect: recovery issues and muscle loss. 2. Frequency While prevailing wisdom suggests that we should train our muscles once per week, research suggests that a frequency of two to three times per week might lead to better results. One r...

  TSquared Lab came into existence with the thought of changing lives of people around us by bringing out a better version of themselves. We lived by the vision of sustainable transformation and educating clients about a healthy lifestyle. But is all of the above enough to make a difference to someone’s life?
