Workout Nerdout: Episode 1 -- Let's Talk About Reps, Baby

The number of repetitions prescribed for exercises depends a lot on the person's goals.

In the first episode of my video series, Workout Nerdout, I discuss the role repetitions play in helping one accomplish his/her fitness goals, as well as providing advice about very high repetitions.
