Rest for a short period of time after each set. The
ideal resting periods are:
¥ Rest three minutes after each set for a muscle build-
ing workout
¥ Rest one minute after each set for a toning workout
¥ Rest 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.
COOLING DOWN
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move
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 very effective for increasing flexibility.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The
chart on page 15 can be photocopied and used to
schedule and record your workouts. List the date, the
exercises performed, the resistance, 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.
