THEFOURBASICTYPESOFWORKOUTS

MuscleBuilding

Theonlywaytoincreasethesizeandstrengthofyour

musclesisto pushthemclosetotheirmaximum

capacity.Whenyouprogressivelyincreasetheintensi-

tyofyourexercise, your muscles will continually adapt

and grow. You can tailor the individual exercise to the

proper intensity level in two ways:

•by changing the amount of weight used

• by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-

formed (A "repetition" is one complete cycle of an

exercise, such as one sit-up. A "set" is a series of

repetitions).

The proper amount of weight for each exercise obvi-

ously depends upon the individual user. You must

gauge your limits and select the amount of weight that

is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for

each exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after

each set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repeti-

tions without difficulty, increase the amount of weight.

Toning

You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a

moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a mod-

erate amount of weight and increase the number of

repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15

to 20 repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest

for 1 minute after each set. Work your muscles by

completing more sets rather than by using high

amounts of weight.

Weight Loss

To lose weight, use a low amount of weight and

increase the number of repetitions in each set.

Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum

of 30 seconds between sets.

Cross Training

Many people desire a complete and well-balanced fit-

ness program, and cross training is a very efficient

way to accomplish this. One example of a balanced

program is:

• Plan weight training workouts on Monday,

Wednesday and Friday.

• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as

cycling, running or swimming on Tuesday and

Thursday.

• Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise

for at least one full day each week to give your body

time to regenerate.

The combination of weight training and aerobic exer-

cise will reshape and strengthen your body plus

develop your heart and lungs.

PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM

Specifying the exact length of time for each workout,

as well as the number of repetitions or sets for each

exercise, is a highly individual matter. It is very impor-

tant to avoid overdoing it during the first few months of

your exercise program. You should progress at your

own pace and be sensitive to your body's signals. If

you experience pain or dizziness at any time while

exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down.

Find out what is wrong before continuing. Remember

that adequate rest and a proper diet are important

factors in any exercise program.

WARMING UP

Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares

your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing

circulation, raising your body temperature and deliver-

ing more oxygen to your muscles.

WORKING OUT

Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-

es. Select exercises for every major muscle group with

emphasis on the areas that you want to develop the

most. To give balance and variety to your workouts,

vary the exercises from session to session.

Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your

energy level is the highest. Each workout should be

followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the

schedule that is right for you, stick with it.

EXERCISE FORM

You will gain the greatest benefits from exercising by

maintaining proper form. This requires moving through

the full range of motion for each exercise and moving

only the appropriate parts of the body. Exercising in

an uncontrolled manner will leave you feeling exhaust-

ed. On the exercise poster accompanying this manual,

you will find photographs showing the correct form for

several exercises. A description of each exercise is

also provided, along with a list of the muscles affect-

ed. Refer to the muscle chart below to find the loca-

tions of the muscles.

The repetitions in each set should be performed

smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of

each repetition should last about half as long as the

return stage. Proper breathing is important. Exhale

during the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale

during the return stroke. Never hold your breath!

You should rest for a short period of time after each

set. The ideal resting periods are:

• Rest three minutes after each set for a muscle build-

ing workout

• Rest one minute after each set for a toning workout

• Rest 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss

workout

Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing

yourself with the equipment and learning the proper

form for each exercise.

COOLING DOWN

End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.

Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move

slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into

each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can

without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout is

very effective for increasing flexibility.

STAYING MOTIVATED

For motivation, keep a record of each workout. List

the date, the exercises performed, the weight plus the

numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record

your weight and key body measurements at the end

of every month.

Remember, the key to achieving the greatest results

is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of

your everyday life.
