Usually I would suggest working in the 8-12 reps for 2-3 sets for each exercise. You want to build endurance and functional strength. If you want to focus on strength, then reduce the reps and increase the sets, but go heavier with longer rest periods between each set (e.g. the classic 5 sets of 5 reps). Hi Matt,
