How many reps to do per exercise?

How many reps should you do per set?

For most of my exercises, I do 2-3 sets of as many as I can. I try to find an exercise where I can do at least 5.

There's a pressure for some people to make their sets even. Like 2 sets of 15.

While this isn't necessarily bad, your set numbers will naturally decrease if you push yourself adequately in the first few sets, so I recommend going to near failure.

A "mistake" some beginners make is to increase sets just to make their reps even. So, for example, they might only do 15 reps, when they could really push themselves to do 25.

This is partially why some people balk at the recommendation of 2-3 sets. It seems way too low if you're not used to intense sets.

That isn't to say you can't supplement other exercises or experiment with different rep ranges. This is just a rule of thumb!
