SETS: A GENERAL GUIDELINE
Sets are a way to track progress with your training. This is a general guide. Programs will vary
depending on your specific needs, goals, off-season or in-season timing, experience, etc.
AS A GENERAL GUIDELINE TO START:
» 2-4 sets when training for strength (moderate to heavy weight with focus on proper form
and control).
PROPER FORM
When trying movements for the first time, use a lighter weight or perform fewer sets with the
goal of being able to perform all movements with proper form and technique. Do not push
through or ignore aches and pains as you perform any movement.
