General Information

The Daily Adjustable Progressive Resistive Exercise (DAPRE) Method is used to step up exercise resistance in standard increments based on a percentage of the target weight. The table below shows the rules for adjusting the weight to lift for your 4th set based on how many reps you completed during set 3.

Reps Performed 4th set Weight Next session target weight
< 12 Decrease 5-10 lbs No Change
12-15 No Change No Change
> 15 Increase 5-10 lbs Increase 5-10 lbs
