Adjust Reps and Sets for Optimal Training
In strength training, adjusting the number of sets in relation to the repetitions performed is crucial for achieving the right training volume. When engaging in low repetitions, it's advisable to increase the number of sets, while for higher repetitions, reducing the number of sets is recommended. This approach ensures that total training volume is managed effectively—total volume is calculated by multiplying sets, reps, and weight. Understanding and manipulating these variables prevent issues like overtraining or undertraining, which can negatively impact performance.
