Body Building
Frequency: 3 Days On, 1 Day Off Time: About 45-60 Minutes
Body building requires focused concentration and dedication to training, as well as proper eating habits. Train each muscle
group to failure before moving on to the next exercise. Do not neglect any muscle group. If needed, include an aerobic
activity to increase your caloric expenditure and help to reduce your body fat levels to achieve a defined muscular look.
Rest 30-60 seconds between each set and exercise. Focus on proper form. Tighten the muscle before you move, squeeze
the muscle as you move, cramp the muscle at the point of full contraction, and resist the movement as you lower the
weight. Move slowly on each rep. Use a pace that will allow you to stop the movement instantly at any point in the rep.
Count three seconds up and three seconds down and work to fatigue during each set.
