Now I am not a massive formula person, we are all wonderfully complex and unique human beings and so when we are programming at SLAM we take lots of other things into account including the general day to day experience of our clients BUT what I am about to share with you forms the basis of most programs and can be used as a guide to help get you toward your goal. How many times you do those complete reps (i.e if you do 5 push-ups 3 times then you’ve done 3 sets of 5 push-ups) If you do 5 push-ups then you’ve done 5 reps) Ok so a little bit of a breakdown of some of the jargon first If you’ve ever wondered why your workout program has various rep ranges, would love to know how to design your own workout programs or are just super into geeking out on systems and formulas then read on! Recently I had an awesome conversation with one of our members about why we use variable rep ranges and what each rep range is designed to do and she suggested that I share it with you all in this Monday’s email, so here you are. One of the things that I am super passionate about is providing education around exercise and that’s why the communication of our “why’s” to the SLAM community is something that is really important to me. This means that our programming must be both accessible for the wide range of incredible humans and their unique needs that we get to support every day and continually challenging for those who have been with us for 4+ years. Alongside our vets we also have a lot of new people joining us on the regular. We are one of those really fortunate gyms that has long commitments from our members, meaning that a lot of the people we train today will have been with us since day dot when I was just fresh out of PT school. Ever wondered why your workout program has various rep ranges? We’ve taken a deep dive into levelling up our programming at SLAM recently.
