Understanding Sets and Reps
Most workouts are defined by sets and reps. Here's what that means.
A set is a series of repetitions (reps) of an exercise done in sequence.
Reps is short for repetition. A rep is a single movement of any exercise.
You might do push-ups for 3 sets of 10 reps with 30 seconds rest between sets.
