RPE Scale (No Measure)

We want the programmed RPE to be based off of our first few sets. Naturally as we get later into the sets what once felt like a 5/10 RPE will begin to get more difficult, but should remain doable and safe for all sets.

**RPE = Rate of Perceived Exertion**

RPE 10 = 0 reps left (max effort)

RPE 9.5 = Maybe 1 rep left

RPE 9 = 1 rep left

RPE 8.5 = 1-2 reps left

RPE 8 = 2 reps left

RPE 7 = 3 reps left

RPE 6.5 = 4 reps left

RPE 6 = 6+ reps left

RPE 5.5 = 8+ reps left

RPE 5 = 10+ reps left
