​Fitness  Circuit: Comprehensive exercise requires the systematic training of all the body’s major muscle groups. Total body fitness is best achieved through Circuit Training, a series of exercises performed repetitively in a certain sequence. After every exercise is finished and the circuit is complete,  repeat  it as recommended on the charts for each program.

Intensity:  The intensity of an exercise is measured by the difficulty of pulling or pushing  the glideboard  up the rails. Intensity refers to how hard you work when you exercise. You control the intensity by the level of
resistance  you select. For example, if your program  calls for 12-20  repetitions  of an exercise, and you can only perform  8 repetitions,  your resistance  level is too high.
If you can perform  21 repetitions,  you should increase the resistance  to the next higher level.

Repetitions: Repetitions designate the number  of times an exercise is performed within one set. A range  of repetitions  is recommended so that  you can perform exercises with precision and form. If you are not able
to complete  the recommended repetitions  before  losing form, you should reduce  the resistance  to allow
good  form.

Sets: A set is a sequence of repetitions  of one exercise. If you are a beginner, start with only one set of each exercise. When you are able to perform  one set of each exercise with minimal soreness  two days post exercise, you are ready to add a second  set. Use this same guideline to advance  to a third set of each exercise.

Tempo —Speed of Movement: Tempo is the pace at which you move during the exercise. For instance, performing  the squat  with a slow tempo  (3 seconds up–concentric and 3 seconds  down–eccentric) would expose the muscles to approximately  six seconds  of work per repetition.  The same exercise performed at a fast tempo  (1 second  up–concentric and 1 second
down–eccentric) would provide two seconds  work-per repetition.  Tempo is a critical component because  the amount of time a muscle is under  tension  is a primary stimulus by which the body gets stronger.

In the following Program Charts, tempo  is defined  by two numbers  with a slash between them.  For example
2/3 indicates 2 seconds  up–concentric, and 3 seconds down–  eccentric.

Rest Period: A rest period is the time taken  between sets or the next exercise. Always follow the prescribed rest period.  Rest period length  has direct correlation  to the positive physiological response  of any exercise.

Frequency:  How often  should you exercise? We suggest  fifteen to twenty  minutes  a day, three  to four times per week. If you want  to work out more frequently,  or for a longer time period,  go right ahead. However, follow your program  guidelines.
