To see this application in action go to Workout Planning and follow the directions. A weight is a force. A set is a group of repetitions. So far as volume of training load is concerned, this is the sum of training work which is performed with various weights, naturally the effectiveness of training in a large part depends on what weight the person exercises with. After the Workout Planning Specialist has measured the clients maximum strength for each exercise in the Routine, they can use the Conversion Chart to calculate the high or low intensity workloads for their workouts.
Intensity is determined by adding up the Total Resistance and dividing it by the Total Repetitions.
Whether a workout is considered High Intensity or Low Intensity relates to each individual separately. Although High and Low intensity training effects the muscle differently the ending point of strength gain should be the same either way.
