About our Literacy Instruction Program. Literacy abilities are the foundation of contemporary K-12 schooling and for most current careers, yet many students struggle to attain the expected literacy benchmarks.
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.
Reps is the number of times you lift the weight in a row, and sets is the number of times you do that. A safe bet for you would be to do 3 sets of 8-12 reps, with a minute and a half rest in between sets. As a girl, you don't have to worry about building prominent muscle. Most women have to work their butts off and/or take supplements to do that.
