EXERCISE GUIDELINES
FOUR TYPES OF STRENGTH WORKOUTS
Note: A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as one sit-up.
A “set” is a series of repetitions.
Muscle Building —Work your muscles near their maximum capacity and
progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. Adjust the intensity
level of an individual exercise as follows:
- Change the amount of resistance used.
- Change the number of repetitions or sets performed.
Use your own judgment to determine the amount of resistance 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 repetitions
without difficulty, increase the amount of resistance.
Toning—Tone your muscles by working them to a moderate percentage of
their capacity. Select a moderate amount of resistance 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
resistance.
Weight Loss —To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance 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 —Combine strength training and aerobic exercise by
following this type of program:
- Strength training workouts on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
- 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise on Tuesday and Thursday.
- One full day of rest each week to give your body time to regenerate.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Familiarize yourself with the equipment and learn the proper form for each
exercise. Use your own judgment to determine the appropriate length of time
for each workout, and the number of repetitions and sets to complete. Progress
at your own pace and be sensitive to your body’s signals. Follow each workout
with at least one day of rest.
Warming Up —Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise.
A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in
preparation for exercise.
Working Out— Include 6 to 10 different exercises in each workout. Select
exercises for every major muscle group, emphasizing areas that you want to
develop.
To give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the exercises from workout
to workout.
Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases
the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FORM
Move through the full range of motion for each exercise and move only the
appropriate parts of the body. Perform the repetitions in each set smoothly
and without pausing. The exertion stage of each repetition should last about
half as long as the return stage. Exhale during the exertion stage of each
repetition and inhale during the return stroke. ever hold your breath.
Rest for a short period of time after each set:
- Muscle Building—Rest for three minutes after each set.
- Toning—Rest for one minute after each set.
- Weight Loss—Rest for 30 seconds after each set.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. Write the date, the exercises
performed, the resistance used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions
completed. Record your weight and key body measurements once a month. To
achieve good results, make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your life.
