Guidelines
• Alternate the A and B routines. For example, do A on Monday and Friday and B on Wednesday. The next week, perform B on Monday and Friday and A on Wednesday.
• Perform 1 set of 8-12 repetitions per exercise. After 12 or more repetitions are achieved, increase the resistance by 2-5 percent at the next workout.
• Lift and lower the resistance smoothly on each repetition. A tried-and-proven speed of movement is 3 seconds on the lifting (positive) and 3 seconds on the lowering (negative).
• Continue each set of repetitions until momentary muscular fatigue
