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 immedi-   ately and begin cooling down.

Select exercises for every major muscle group,   emphasizing areas that you want to develop 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.   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.   EXERCISE FORM   Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an   effective exercise program. This requires moving   through the full range of motion for each exercise, and   Cross Training   Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and moving only the appropriate parts of the body.   well-balanced fitness program. An example of a bal-   anced program is:   • Plan weight training workouts on Monday,   Wednesday, and Friday.   • Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as   cycling 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.   Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you   feeling exhausted. On the exercise guide accompany-   ing this manual you will find photographs showing the   correct form for several exercises, and a list of the   muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page   10 to find the names of the muscles.   The repetitions in each set should be performed   smoothly and without pausing.

Ease into   each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can   without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout   is an effective way to increase flexibility.   • Rest for one minute after each set for a toning work-   out.   STAYING MOTIVATED   • Rest for 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.   For motivation, keep a record of each workout. List   the date, the exercises performed, the weight used,   and 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.   COOLING DOWN   End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.   Include stretches for both your arms and legs.
