Drop sets

A drop set is one working set that happens to have been taken to failure three times at decreasing loads. Logging it as three separate sets inflates your set count and misrepresents the session.

One set, several loads

The top set carries its drops. Volume counts all of it, set counts count one, and your history shows the shape of the set rather than a suspicious cluster of three.

A mode the card enters

Dropping is something you do to the set you are already on — the card enters drop mode rather than making you create a second, different kind of set beforehand. You rarely know in advance.

Questions

Does this work on the watch?
Yes. The watch card enters the same drop mode rather than offering a separate set type.
