"4 sets of 6 at RPE 7." If that sounds like a password, this one's for you.
The basics
- Rep: one lift
- Set: a group of reps before you rest
- 4x6: four sets of six reps
- RPE: how hard it felt out of 10. A 7 means you had about three reps left
Why heavy isn't scary
Heavy is relative. Heavy for you, today, with good form. Progress comes from doing a little more over time: a bit more weight, a rep more, better control. That's it.
