Quoted By:
So I'm new to weightlifting and I heard the amount of reps in a set decide how your muscles develop..
1-5 reps is for pure strength, with little or no increase in mass.
6-12 reps is how you gain mass, as well as some strength
13-20 reps increases endurance and the capacity of the blood-vessels, with minimal mass and strength increase.
This true?
Also, following this program (just cange it from 5x5 to 5x8)

How long will it take me to notice any size increase in my muscles, couple of weeks?
