The number of times you lift a weight or perform an exercise is called?

Explanation:
In resistance training, a single complete lift is called a repetition. When you perform several of these in a row without resting, that group is a set. The term you’re counting—the number of times you lift—is repetition (often shortened to reps). For example, doing 10 consecutive lifts in one go means you completed 10 repetitions in that set.
