For example, 10 reps in a back squat has a much higher metabolic cost than a barbell biceps curl.<\/p>\n<p>Two other methods the Strength Sensei said used to determine training volume are <strong>training time<\/strong> [Miller, C., <em>Olympic Lifting Training Manual<\/em>, 1977, Iron Man Publishing Company, Alliance] and <strong>time under tension<\/strong> [Poliquin, C. and King, I. <em>Strength Training for Alpine Skiing<\/em>. Level 3 Seminar, Whistler, 1991.] Regarding this second reference, it should be noted that Australian Strength Coach Ian King worked with the Strength Sensei on several articles in the late 80s and early 90s. Giving credit where it\u2019s due, Coach King developed the 3-digit tempo prescription formula, which the Strength Sensei later expanded to 4-digits to include the pause at the advantageous leverage position (for example, with the arms extended during the bench press).<\/p>\n<p>One key guideline the Strength Sensei said should be considered when writing workouts is that there is an inverse relationship between training intensity and training volume. If the training intensity is high, the training volume must be relatively low. This topic extends beyond just saying that the more reps you perform the fewer sets are needed to achieve an optional training effect. Training intensity (that is, how much weight is lifted in relation to maximum effort for 1 repetition) must also be taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a table the Strength Sensei published in 1989 providing more specific guidelines for the relationship between intensity and volume (i.e., Repetition volume thresholds for maximal strength development in relation to number of exercises per training unit). The key takeaway is that when more exercises are prescribed in a training unit, the number of reps prescribed has to decrease.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Number of Repetitions Per Exercise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Intensity Zone\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 High Number of Exercises \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Low Number of Exercises<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Per Workout (3-4)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Per Workout (1-2)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>95-100%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 5-12\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 8-20*<\/p>\n<p>90-95%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 10-12\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 12-20<\/p>\n<p>85-90%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 13-30\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 25-40<\/p>\n<p>80-85%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 20-35\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 25-70<\/p>\n<p>75-80%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 28-50\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 40-100<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>*In this example, when training intensity is 95% or more of a maximum single repetition for a specific exercise, the top-end range of total repetitions should rarely exceed 20. This is in contrast to training in the 75-80% zone, where the number of reps prescribed could be as high as 100.<\/p>\n<p>With this background, a strength coach or personal trainer can more precisely design workouts to achieve specific training goals. For example, the repetition bracket for increasing relative strength (i.e., strength per unit of bodyweight) could be 12-100 reps for a one-hour workout; for hypertrophy, 100-300; and for strength endurance, 300-720.
