NOTE

Understanding Modifiable Variables in Exercise

Being intentional and judicious about the seven modifiable variables in exercise is crucial. These variables are Choice (exercise selection), Order (sequence of exercises), Volume (repetitions and sets), Intensity (percentage of one rep max), Frequency (training days per week), Rest (rest intervals), and Progression (advancement over time). Each variable has a significant impact on the type of adaptation achieved, whether it's strength, power, or hypertrophy. Paying attention to these variables is essential for optimizing workout effectiveness and achieving fitness goals.
