Always start your training at a level that will allow you to complete the
recommended reps and sets. For optimal results when exercising, only
increase weight resistance as you’re able to maintain proper form and
control while doing so.
•Take breaks between sets
•Discontinue if you feel undue pain
•Be patient and persistent—building strength takes time
•Have a towel and water bottle ready
•Breathe—your muscles need oxygen
–Inhale when the muscle lengthens
–Exhale when the muscle shortens.
Think “exhale on the exertion.”
•Stretch before your workout, and especially upon completion.
Do exercises in proper order so you are balancing your muscle function.
Example: while exercising your upper arms, follow a “pulling” exercise,
such as bicep curls with a “pushing” exercise, such as tricep presses.
