Rep count for Cossacks and twisting squats

Just to confirm:

Rep count for Cossacks is 10 total (5 per side)?

And I notice the rep count for twisting squats has gone down to 4 - again, is this per side or total?

Lastly, @Cory Fair - for exercises where there are two sides (iM's and PE's) - is it possible to just make a note on the exercise page whether it's total reps or per side? I understand that many of the exercises have follow along videos now, but for the ones that don't, I think this would help clarify things.

Thanks,

Cam

Hey Cam,

That is correct for Coassack Squats. I'm not sure about twisting squats but I've always done 10r. @Tanya Hill, do you know?

We have a list of needed @ symbols and it shouldn't be too much longer before the new features and course fixes are up. Thanks for hanging in there.

Ok great.

Thanks very much!

This would be great, I second this. 

I have always done twisting squats 5 reps per side. For the mean time do not worry to much about the reps and keep working on it. Getting the tempo and proper form is more important than reps.

Second Leo on number of reps (just do 5 ea side, they are not that tiring, and for years that was "the one and only way" hahaha. Just do it.

Same, I just count up to 10 alternating.

Came to forum just to find this info. Not pleased that people just agrees to something rather than real answer.

Nothing to do but suffer like an OCD person

Hey Riku,

The follow along video will handle counting reps for you. 

as this element has moved to F2 it does not have a follow along video.  It was always a total of 10 reps or 5 each direction in the past how ever I dont know if that has changed as it says 5 now when I look at it and there have been many other changes to exercise reps and time. Perhaps someone who knows for sure could chime in.  in the meantime id probably stick to the original 10 in total for twisting squats assuming you can handle them with good form.

Hi Andrew, if it was 10 reps total then it is 5 on each direction of twist.

Old thread but it comes up in search results for "counting reps"

Can someone confirm or summarize the official answer, as simply as possible?

Step 2 of SLS/PE6 Cossack Squat says "5x2r". Is that 5 sets of 1 rep per leg? SLS/PE6>iM says "5x5r@". 5 sets of 5 reps per direction?

Thank you

Yes

If you see an @ symbol, that means "per side". If not, it's total, between the two sides. 

I guess I should read the instructions closer. I just finished step 9, and have been doing 10 reps per side on Cossacks. At least it will make the side to side squats easier.
