exert high levels of force (strength), or to exert high levels of force quickly
(power),
What is a single-set system? - (answers)Allows for the proper adaptation of the
connective tissue and muscular system before moving on to more rigorous
training (best for beginners)
What is the 80% rule? - (answers)Enjoy about 80% of the strength gains when
performing a 1 set workout twice a week. (8-12 reps to fatigue)
-turns on all 3 fiber types
True or false: The single-set program is just as effective as tht multiple-set
program for advanced clients - (answers)False. More work is needed to get that
