Sets and reps are the terms used to describe the number of times you perform an exercise. A rep is the number of times you perform a specific exercise, and a set is the number of cycles of reps that you complete. For example, suppose you complete 15 reps of a bench press.
A rep is just one... thing. So if you were doing the bench press, it would be lifting the bar up and down one time. A set is a collection of reps. So, the number of reps you do before you stop. Can be as low as 3-5 for strength building exercises or as high as 15-20 for toning. blitzcrackunders Â· 8 years ago.
