CourtFit editorial
Training volume: what sets and repetitions tell you
Sets and repetitions describe part of the work performed. They do not by themselves capture load, effort, complexity, court work or recovery.
The decision in context
Volume is a way to describe how much work a session contains, but the exact calculation depends on the exercise and the question.
How to apply it this week
Two sessions can share a repetition count while differing in external load, movement, rest or sport demands.
The trade-off to name
Adding a second set may increase recorded work but also take calendar and recovery space.
Where the answer stops
This page is educational planning context. It does not diagnose symptoms, set an individual load, replace court practice or qualified advice, or guarantee a sport result.
