Re: *Bunny* 2005 Log
in truth a "set" is in no way absolutely defined. However given general parameters that are often used.. ie X # of Sets per body part.. There are a variety of definitions for what constitutes a "set". IMHO any "lift"(with fairly constant tension) under 90 secs, this is an arbitrary # and will vary from individual to individual, should be counted as a single set. When you go over that, the time under tension will, depending on load, tend to constitute an additional "set" or "sets.
IMHO- drop sets and supersets(which can constitute up to 4 different nearly continuous exercises) should be measured by a time undertension principle as opposed to a strict set completion/momentary failure principle.

Behind the neck? Can you clarify - these sound like Good Mornings, not SLDLs...
compare (ignore that these are the smith machine- just interested in the bar placement):

Re: *Bunny* 2005 Log
Each of the drops was under 90 seconds and fits your definition as listed above.
You(in general) cant tell me that a double or triple drop, with each drop done to failure, taxes the body in the same way that a straight set does....even if the total reps are the same.
You dont grow from the initial reps of a set...you grow form the reps at the end.
Thats why a drop set is so intense..you get, at the moment of failure at each set, more growth reps......ie - more reps done to absolute failure. If, for no other reason than that, you cant lump a triple drop set into the same class as a straight set, regardless of TUT, if for no other reason than recovery.
You body perceives the scenario as this on a triple drop set:
easy, hard, GROWTH REP - slight rest
easy, hard, GROWTH REP - slight rest
easy, hard, GROWTH REP - slight rest
easy, hard, GROWTH REP
4x as many growth reps
as opposed to a straight set:
easy, hard - GROWTH REP
1 growth rep
you just can't count a drop set to faliure as ONE set.......
and when training to positive failure as was mentioned, the set ends when failure to complete another rep occurs....that is the definiton of a "set"
IMHO
but anyway...back to the Buns post....didnt mean to hijack it
