I think part of the problem is that different people have different definitions. (Yeah, they really do!)

In NROL they do use high reps, but you are still supposed to go as heavy as you are able with good form. And even the high reps are 15-20. (I'm just starting NROL, so I may be wrong on that -- maybe there are some that go higher???).

When some people think high reps, it's like the cardio bunnies who think they need to do 100 crunches, 100 reverse crunches and 100 bicycles for their abs. And then maybe add 50 tricep kickbacks with a 2 pound dumbbell. That's not going to maintain your lbm.

That's a big departure from some
