    weight=the weight your lifting
    reps= amount a repetitions performed
    set= a set of repetitions performed before taking a break and preparing for another set
    volume= total amount of weight moved when you multiple the weight times the reps

    example of volume

    10 sets of 10 reps of 100 weight on squats

    typically written

    10X10X100

    10*10*100=10,000

    you did 10,000 pounds of volume on squats that day.
