I usually see tho things like ~2/3-3/4

I think has something to do with volume/intensity but not sure what those numbers are supposed to mean..

But like Boone said, without context, it's hard to say

Idk I've never seen RPE expressed as a fraction. Maybe concentric/eccentric tempo?
I was thinking maybe 2/3 being somewhere in the 2 or 3 range?

Typically tempo you see as 1234 for the con/pause/ec/pause

Give us an example you've seen and i almost guarantee someone will be able to tell you what it means. But, from your op, it's hard saying. Also, money0351, i agree with you as I've never seen or notated rpe as a fraction. Typically it would be something like 440x3@9 (with @9 being the rpe, for those that may not know).

it's not rpe. those numbers are too low for rpe as rpe is from 1-10 in most labs.
I am going to assume x/y sets of x/y reps which allows for some self-regulation in relation to how you feel that day

Thats also a good point about the rpe. You dont even start counting rpe til about 5 or 6 really. Its just too hard to estimate it further past that.

Considering they're grouped with a dash instead of a comma, I'll go with tempo numbers?

Typically it would be X-X-X-X or Y/Y/Y/Y though.

I can't otherwise think of anything used as a fraction short of maybe a preworkout scoop.
