The four set routine may involve increases in resistance. The first set is considered a warm up set using a light weight of around 15-20 repetitions. The second set is a build up set using a moderate weight for around 12-15 repetitions. The 3rd and 4th set are the harder sets using a moderately solid weight for around 10-12 repetitions.
