RM is basically not used alone, and a number will be added in front.
Example 1:
For example, the coach said, "To achieve the ideal muscle gain effect, please choose the weight 10RM, one group is 10, and * * * is 6 groups"-
This means that in order to increase the volume of biceps faster, it is suggested that you choose the weight that cannot be lifted after 10 bending (this weight is the weight of 10KG), and each group uses this weight as 10 bending, and practice 6 groups.
1, "RM" is the abbreviation of "maximum repetition", which literally means "maximum repetition" and freely translates as "maximum repetition". Combined with the number x, it is actually "the maximum weight that can be repeated x times" or "the maximum weight that can only be repeated x times".
For example, for a trainer, the weight of 30kg is used for biceps bending training, and he can only be exhausted after six consecutive bending exercises, so the weight of 30kg is 6RM for the trainer's biceps training.
2. The relationship between the selection of 2.RM and the training effect:
The training mode of "big weight, less times" tends to increase muscle strength and volume.
The training mode of "small weight, many times" is more inclined to enhance endurance and reduce body fat.
Specific explanation:
1-4RM mainly trains absolute muscle strength and volume;
6- 12RM is mainly for training muscle mass;
15-20RM is mainly used to train small muscle groups and enhance muscle lines and elasticity;
30RM and above are mainly used to reduce body fat and enhance cardiopulmonary function.
