Would one minute equal one set for both arms? Just trying to make sure I understand? Or do they count each arm as it's own unique set? That's how it sounds if I am understanding you correctly.
Yep, you got it, each arm is a unique set; it's a weird way of counting but everyone knows what everyone else is up to that way.
So, say you did 3 minutes 15-on (L-arm), 15-rest, 15-on (R-arm), 15-rest; that's two on sets per minute x 3 minutes = 6 sets.
If you do a full minute of 15:15 then you know you have 2 sets in the bag so just double up your minutes to get the sets (2 mins= 4 sets; 8 mins = 16 sets etc); hope that helps.
