This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Even that kind of knowledge isn't something broached in the classes I took. I'm not even sure if the word 'reps' is more associated with lifting specifically or exercise in general!

It's associated with strength training. You could call bodyweight exercise reps, but usually we don't do sets and reps with things like pushups, situps, unweighted squats and chin ups. They're usually considered endurance exercises unless you're really heavy.
