TRAINING GUIDELINES
MUSCLE SORENESS
For the first week or so, muscle soreness may be the only indication you have that you
are on an exercise program. This, of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A
confirmation that you are on the correct program is a very slight soreness in most major
muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of days.
If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced, or you
have increased your program too rapidly.
If you experience pain during or after exercise, your body is telling you something. Stop
exercising and consult your doctor.
WHAT TO WEAR
Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should
be light enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more
than you normally would gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and
will be replaced with the next glass of water you drink. Always wear a pair of athletic shoes.
BREATHING DURING EXERCISE
Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible.
Remember, breathing involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the
working muscles.
REST PERIODS
Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not
break off halfway through and then restart at the same place later on without going
through the warm-up stage again. The rest period required between exercises may vary
from person to person.
