gotta get motivated!!!!!!!!!

dvlmn666 · 03-21-2002, 01:38 PM

Sounds like the increased intensity is paying off. Congrats.

Keep it up

I'm kinda confused on what you call a rep and a set though. But looks good to me, and damnn you have strong abs, I can only do the machine one with 115lbs.

Scorpio Gurl · 03-21-2002, 07:00 PM

Yeeeeah, I'm a little confused with that aswell, I do them and count what i do, ..... k.. read this..
When i'm doing my leg press, I will start at saaaay, 80lbs and do as many as i can (which wouldn't be a lot) then when I can't do it.. I lower the weight to about 50lbs, and do 12, repeated 3 times.
Man, i'm starting to confuse myself even more!!!!!!

Well, thanks so much Dvlmn!

dvlmn666 · 03-21-2002, 07:13 PM

ok, as long as your not taking a break from were you went from the 80 to 50 that's called a drop set.

each press = rep
the combination of the 80 then dropping to 50 once is a set

so what you described would be
3 drop sets of (total consecutive reps done (#@80+#@50)

a rep is basically one complete motion of the exercise.

glad if I helped any

And your pix are awesome by the way.
