· Train twice a week, for not more than 30 minutes.
· Move very slowly in your workout. Fast movement in sports is the cause of most injuries.
· Don't rest between separate exercises.
· Use a weight you can hold for 60 seconds.
· When you can do nine repetitions, try to increase the weight by 5%.
· Keep in mind that it is the tension against the weight which gives better results.
· Work the big muscles first, followed by the smaller ones. By starting with the buttocks and legs, the demand on your system is greater and the release of hormones has an affect on the smaller muscles.
· Drink water before beginning and after your workout.
· Skip dinner twice a week. The repair mechanism is hindered by eating at night.
· Take things easy. Most coronary problems are caused by stress.
