EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Muscle Building
Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
is an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdo-
ing it during the first few months of your exercise pro-
gram. You should progress at your own pace and be
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
push them close to their maximum capacity. Your mus-
cles will continually adapt and grow as you progres-
sively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can
adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in two sensitive to your body’s signals. If you experience pain
ways:
or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immedi-
ately 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 pro-
• 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 rep- gram.
etitions.)
WARMING UP
The proper amount of weight for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
your limits and select the amount of weight that is right
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares
for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each exer- your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing

difficulty, increase the amount of weight.
WORKING OUT
Toning
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a mod-
erate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of weight and increase the number of repeti-
tions 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 complet-
ing more sets rather than by using high amounts of
weight.
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-
es. 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 fol-
lowed 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 effec-
tive exercise program. 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 exhausted.
On the exercise guide accompanying this manual you
will find photographs showing the correct form for sev-
eral exercises, and a list of the muscles affected. Refer
to the muscle chart on page 11 to find the names of the
muscles.
Cross Training
Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and
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.
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 dur-
ing the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale dur-
ing the return stroke. Never hold your breath.
The combination of weight training and aerobic exer-
cise will reshape and strengthen your body, and devel-
op your heart and lungs.
10
Rest for a short period of time after each set. The ideal
resting periods are:
• Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle
building workout.
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
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. The
chart on pages 12 and 13 of this manual can be pho-
tocopied and used to schedule and record your work-
outs. List the date, the exercises performed, the
weight used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions
completed. Record your weight and key body mea-
surements at the end of every month. Remember, the
key to achieving the greatest results is to make exer-
cise 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. Move
