KB work - sets and reps

Sets and reps are a Western "gym" ways of training, as opposes to an oriental "MA" way.

You pick a particular exercise and practice a certain amount of reps, eg 8 or 10, then do a certain amount of sets, eg 3 or 4.

You develop these sets on the gym equipment - the bags or pads.
