TODAY, YOU HAVE TWO WORKOUTS! BUT DON'T WORRY, THEY'RE NOT TOO TOUGH. FIRST WORKOUT IS 15 MINUTES OF THE STRENGTH TRAINING ROUTINE AT LEVEL 1 INTENSITY. Same routine as last week. One of the key principles of this program is periodization. You will notice that for 3 weeks the total time spent exercising increases, while during the 4th week the volume drops slightly. This gradual increase in training stress, followed by a period of reduced training ensures that your body adapts to the training and you'll improve your level of fitness. YOUR SECOND WORKOUT IS TO DO A 10 MINUTE STRETCHING ROUTINE. Same routine as last week. Make sure you are getting enough fluids in before, during and after your exercise sessions. Don't rely on thirst to determine when to drink, by the time you are thirsty, you are usually on your way to being dehydrated. As a general rule you should be drinking 8-10 large glasses of water per day, more if you are exercising in hot, humid weather or indoors. Sports drinks also work well, they taste good, will replace lost fluid and electrolytes, and keep you going strong.
