2 Answers By Expert Tutors Because multiplication is commutative, x2 and 2x would be the same thing. But x2 means x times x. Hi Brithany. 2x and x2 are the same.
Answer: x squared plus x squared is 2×2.
x-squared plus x-squared is equal to 2 times x squared. Calculating x-squared plus x-squared is a matter of combining like terms.
If you repeat something it means it has been done one original time and performed a second time, if you repeat 2 times i has been done 1 originally + 1 repetition + 1 repitition = 3 actions. The use of “most times” refers more to a specific event that happens a limited number of time.
Also, “Repeat three times” means “Do it three additional times”. Thus if you do something one time and repeat it three times you have done it four times.
Through long experience, for most trainees, three sets of five has been found to be an effective dose that allows the trainee to recover and adapt enough to train again in two days. In short, 5×5 three times a week is too much. There’s too much stimulus, not enough recovery, and lifters stall or regress.
Any increases in performance are entirely coincidental. You CAN increase muscle size with heavy bodybuilding exercises, but you can build muscles with moderate and even light weights too. Heavy weights build strength, but lighter weights do not.
You need to be hitting the weights at least three days per week. The research says that at the very least, training a minimum of two days per week is needed to maximize muscle growth.
Most beginners can expect to see noticeable muscle growth within eight weeks of starting a new strength training routine, and more experienced lifters within three to four weeks, Smith-Ryan says.
Here are nine ways.
How to Tell if You’re Gaining Muscle
As your body gets stronger, and your muscles adapt to the new type of movement, you won’t feel the soreness afterwards. As you progress through the physical change, the DOMS will reduce and, usually within a dozen or so workouts, you’ll stop feeling it altogether.
