WORKOUT GUIDELINES CLEANING
Each workout should include the following three parts:
1. A WARM-UP:
5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
2. TRAINING ZONE EXERCISE:
20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your
training zone. (Note: During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart
rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes).
3. COOL-DOWN:
5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles
and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at least one day
of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five
workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
