What is workout density?
Density is how much work you do in a set amount of time. Doing the same volume in less time, or more volume in the same time, means your density has gone up.
Density = volume ÷ minutes
When does density matter?
It is a useful measure of conditioning and efficiency. For pure strength, do not cut rest so much that your heavy sets suffer.
Is this calculator for me?
It suits anyone who lifts, from beginners to experienced lifters. Results are estimates. Technique, sleep, food and stress all change what you can lift on the day. Always warm up and use a spotter or safety bars for heavy sets.
