We’ve collected a list of the lifting-related words that most often confuse beginners, so read on to learn what you might be missing. RepsWe don’t usually lift a weight just once; we pick it up and set it down multiple times. 1RM, 3RM, 5RMThese are a one rep max, a three rep max, and a five rep max, respectively.
