For beginners, how many sets of muscle-strengthening exercises does canfitpro recommend?

1 set of 12 to 15 repetitions
Multiple sets with low repetitions
1 set of 8 to 10 repetitions
2 sets of 10 repetitions each

The correct answer is: 1 set of 12 to 15 repetitions

canfitpro recommends 1 set of 12 to 15 repetitions for beginners because it allows for proper form and technique to be maintained, reduces the risk of injury, and allows for gradual progression. Option B, multiple sets with low repetitions, may be too intense for beginners and lead to muscle fatigue or injury. Option C, 1 set of 8 to 10 repetitions, may also be too intense and may not provide enough time for muscles to recover. Option D, 2 sets of 10 repetitions each, may also be too intense and may not allow for proper form and technique to be maintained. Overall, choosing 1 set of 12 to 15 repetitions is ideal for beginners to safely and effectively build strength.
