Sets and Reps Explained

Understand repetitions and sets in resistance training.

A repetition is one completed movement; a set is a group of repetitions. These variables organize training volume, but no single set-and-rep prescription fits every person and goal.

Next: training frequency.

Health note: Exercise needs vary. If you have a chronic condition, disability, injury, or concerns about starting exercise, seek appropriate professional guidance.
