    so im doing a new workout and they have drop sets AND triple drop sets in the workout

    i know a drop set is starting on lets say 30kg. moving down to 20-25 immediatly. moving down to 10-15 immediatly after your reps

    so whats a triple drop set? the same above but doing it 3 times? which = 9 sets

    Triple drop set IS when you go from lets say 30kg down to 20kg then down to 10kg..... no rest

    That's exactly what the OP said just in a different format.

    a drop set is normally just dropping the weight once (double drop set), triple drop is dropping it twice

    No you didn't. You said a triple is dropping from 30-20-10kg.

    OP, do what smashpotato said but not for 9 sets...unless you're crazy.
