Training load refers to the total cumulative load placed on an individual during a given time period. Within the training load, there are several factors that combine to create the training effect. These factors are the training potential of the client, the magnitude, duration, and intensity of the exercises performed, the concentration of load place on the client over time, the specificity of movements utilized, and the separation of strength load, speed development and perfection of technique (Verkhoshansky & Siff, 2006). There are several ways to determine the specific load that should be used in order to illicit the ideal result. This can be accomplished through one repetition maximum testing, estimated one repetition max testing, and multiple repetitions max testing. The results of these tests can then be used to assign a specific load for a given exercise based on a percentage of the one repetition or multiple repetitions max for the purpose of achieving the desired goal.
