Do you utilize this chart into your training intensity?
Yes
No
The rate of perceived exertion chart is to tell the intensity of the exercise how hard you need to work by telling you your reps in reserve by telling you how many more reps you could have done or not. It is done on a scale from 1 low intensity resting to 10 where you could not perform no more reps and training at maximal intent.
10 | MAXIMAL EFFORT-NO MORE REPS LEFT IN RESERVE |
9 | EXTREAMLEY HARD-1 REP LEFT IN RESERVE |
8 | VERY HARD-2 REPS LEFT IN RESERVE |
7 | POWER-EXPLOSIVE-MOVING WEIGHT FAST |
6 | SPEED/ECCENTRIC-FAST UP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE/SLOW DOWN 2-4 SECS |
5 | MODERATE WEIGHT |
4 | LIGHT WEIGHT FOR CORRECTIVE EXERCISES |
3 | MOBILITY/INCREASE RANGE OF MOTION |
2 | FLEXIBILITY/RECOVERY |
