What is a set when working out?

In the context of working out, a set refers to a specific number of consecutive repetitions (reps) of an exercise performed without rest. For example, if you do 10 push-ups, that constitutes one set of 10 reps. Sets are often combined with rest periods to enhance muscle recovery and performance during a workout routine. Typically, multiple sets are performed for each exercise to increase strength, endurance, or muscle hypertrophy.
