Matthew 6:7: “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathens, for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.” This applies to repetitions of an exercise: do not do vain repetitions Vain repetition = sacrificing form to get more reps
Rather, cut back on your reps if you need to modify the exercise.
This applies also in life—be genuine and put in a real effort rather than just putting in a show. Focus on self-improvement, not your vanity.

The Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln. Nov 19th, 1863 “Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. (…) d. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
