general training planning
Create a training plan according to your needs
with sets of 6-8 exercises.
Observe the following principles:
• One set should comprise approximately
15 repetitions of one exercise.
• Each set can be repeated three times.
• Take a break for 30 seconds between each
set.
• Work with fewer repetitions but greater
weights to build up muscle. Work with more
repetitions but lesser weights for stamina.
• Warm up each group of muscles before each
training session.
• We also recommend stretching before the
beginning of each training session.
