Training Tips

pre-existing health condition, you should start slowly. Initially you may only be able exercise for a short amount of time
using minimal resistance levels or weight loads.
Begin your desired training program slowly and gradually increase the amount of time you exercise. Apply realistic goals,
that have been set by you or your physician. You should see sufficient gains in your personal fitness level within 6-8 weeks
of continuous exercise, but do not be discouraged if it takes longer. It is very important to exercise at your own pace and
become confident in obtaining your goals. It is also important to apply warm-up, stretching, and cool down periods with any
exercise program.
As your fitness level increases, so will your confidence and sense of accomplishment.
Regularly exercise and a healthy diet will energize you and offer a sense of well-being.
