welcome to FT

completeing a movement once = rep

so if you were doing press-ups, lowering yourself to the ground and pushing back up once would equal 1 rep.

doing several reps in a row without stopping in between = a set

so if you did 6 press-ups in a row, stopped for a break, then did another 6 you would have done 2 sets of 6 reps.

does this answer your question?
