3 This training guide will provide you with all the information you need to get started training properly. If you have any questions after reading this, comment and bring it up in the group (or me). Contents: 3-day program 4-day program Below you re going to see the training programs, notes for each, and how to choose the one that best suits you. If you have a busy schedule and can only squeeze in 3 days of training, use the 3-day program. If you have more time, and can commit to 4 days, we have that too. MAKE THE DECISION BASED ON YOUR SCHEDULE AND PREFERENCES. If you want to start with 3 days, and work into 4 days by week 3 or 4, be my guest and put my service to the test (Tie your napkin 'round your neck, Cherie and we'll provide the rest). Of course, I d like you to train more if possible, but if you can t, no worries. This ain t about perfection. One note on the supersets: if there s a movement you absolutely cannot do in tandem together, i.e. you re in a gym that is super crowded and everyone s hogging equipment OR the equipment you need is far apart (lat pulldowns upstairs and DB s downstairs), then do the movement in a Straight Set fashion, resting for 30 seconds between sets.
