• Try to keep the timing of the day consistent when exercising, as getting into a routine is very important when training and will make consistency easier.
• Follow the program and do your best not to skip workouts thinking that you can double up the day after – this will cause you to burn out, feel less motivated and will negatively impact the overall effectiveness of this program.
• Use your rest days wisely; these should be active rest days used for recovery – go for a walk and don’t just sit in front of the television inactive, snacking on junk foods.
• Use the weight tracking table in the Program Calendar along with the Fitness Test to monitor your progress.
• The order of exercises in the workout plans is left to right.
• To maximize your results and avoid injury, make sure that you are performing the exercises in correct form. Refer to the Exercise Descriptions section as needed.
