20 Minute Better Body Workout

Frequency: 3 Days Per Week (M-W-F)
Start by performing one set of each exercise. Warm up with a light resistance exercise that you can perform
easily for 5 -10 reps without fatiguing. Focus on practicing and learning your technique before increasing the
resistance. Then move to a more challenging resistance you can perform for no less than 10 reps and no more
than 15 reps without your form deteriorating. As you become stronger, you can advance to two sets for each
exercise. Complete all sets of each exercise before moving on to the next. Rest 30 to 45 seconds between sets.
Move slowly on each rep. Use a pace that will allow you to stop the movement instantly at any point in the rep.
Count three seconds up and three seconds down and work to fatigue during each set.

Advanced General Conditioning

Frequency: 4 Days Per Week (M-T-TH-F)
When you are proficient in performing the exercise techniques of the above routine and are no longer realizing
results, or if you become bored, it is time to change your program. You can increase your training with this
"split system" routine that works opposing muscle groups on different days. To do this, you'll increase your
resistance when you can perform 12 reps perfectly, and you'll increase your volume by performing more sets
and more exercises. Move slowly on each rep. Use a pace that will allow you to stop the movement instantly at
any point in the rep. Count three seconds up and three seconds down and work to fatigue during each set.
