What is the true meaning of Intensity?
Over the years now the word intensity has changed. Although we have many different interpretations of the word now, the true meaning has stood for over a 100 years. Back in the late 1800s and early 1900s Russian coaches described the word intensity as the percentage of their one rep maximum. In weight training do not get the word ‘intensive’ mixed up with the ‘Intensity’. Intensive would best be described as emotional motivation or aggressiveness carried out.
