But, if you do 13 reps on accident it will count as cardio, and your gains will be gone.

I did squats today and accidentally counted both down and up as 1 rep and got confused.

If i do that i start off at the lower number and risk doing an extra one.

Round down. e.g. if I'm doing a set of 8, and I genuinely don't remember if that was 7 or 8, I assume it was 7 and do one more rep.

FWIW, this has happened to me exactly one time.

Not lifting hard enough. Lifting til failure or just before is half of the driving factor behind linear progresssion. You should know what number you are on despite counting, just from difficulty.

That's not even how it works

Start over, don't be a pussy.

>>41446817
Usually I generally do 15 reps for my workouts, so if I lose count I just start from 10 and do the last 5.
