Answer to Question 1

Exercise intensity is determined by expressing the weight lifted as a percent of the maximal amount of weight that
can be lifted one time for that exercise (repetition maximum = RM). Thus, a 6 RM weight is one that can be lifted
only 6 times.

Answer to Question 2

A weight-training program using low repetitions and high resistance results in the greatest strength gains, whereas
a weight-training program using high repetitions and low resistance results in the greatest improvement in
muscular endurance.
