ADVANCED TRAINING PROGRAM


Back to the home page | Rates | Map | Beginner's Program | Diet

This is a weekly program with four days of exercize concentrating on different areas of the body each day. It's good for working people because they can squeeze in two days during the work week and come in on Saturday and Sunday for the other two days because Marci's Mega Gym is open on weekends. If you have the time, you can intersperse a heavy cardio workout on alternate days.

Warmup with 15 to 20 minutes on a bike, treadmill, or stairstepper, or stretching.

Abdominal exercises every day do no harm. It's the best and most effective way to get results.

All exercises should be performed in sets of 20-15-10 repetitions with moderate weight, not too light, but not heavy enough to cause injuries. The weight should be heavy enough to provide resistance and to force a little extra effort on the the last three reps.
