EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS
Using your TBST will provide you with several benefits, it will improve your physical fitness, tone
muscle and in conjunction with calorie controlled diet help you lose weight.
1. The Warm Up Phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body and the muscles working properly. It will also
reduce the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown
below. Each stretch should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do not force or jerk your muscles
into a stretch - if it hurts, STOP.
2. The Cool Down Phase
This stage is to let your Cardio-vascular System and muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the
warm up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for approximately 5 minutes. The stretching
exercises should now be repeated, again remembering not to force or jerk your muscles into the
stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and harder. It is advisable to train at least three times a
week, and if possible space your workouts evenly throughout the week.
WEIGHT LOSS
The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work the more
calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your fitness, the
difference is the goal.
