Adherence

Young adult males aiming to improve strength or develop muscle hypertrophy do not consistently follow current strength and conditioning recommendations, indicating a gap between guidelines and actual training practices.

If you are a young man trying to build muscle or strength, check if your current routine matches official guidelines (frequency, volume, intensity). If you are unsure, consult a certified strength and conditioning specialist to align your training with evidence-based standards rather than guessing.
