Is the number of reps per set more important or just total reps.
For instance, last night I am doing 2 sets of 10's for my maxes. I grab the weight and can only manage 7 reps. Next set I can only manage 5 reps. Now should I realize its too heavy and just lower the weight or is it okay to do 4-5 sets of 6-7 reps so long as I get 20 total reps?
