TRAINING GUIDELINES
Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual.
Listed among its benefits are:
* Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance)
* Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency
* Decreased risk of coronary heart disease
* Changes in body metabolism, e.g. losing weight
* Delaying the physiological effects of age
* Reduction in stress, increase in self-confidence, etc.
_here are several components of physical fitness and each is defined below.
S TRENG TH
The capacity of a muscle to exert a force against resistance. Strength contributes to power and speed.
M USCUZAR END URA NCE
The capacity to exert a force repeatedly over a period of time, e.g. it is the muscular endurance of
your legs to carry you 10 km without stopping.
FLEXIBILITY
The range of motion of your joints. Improving flexibility involves the stretching of muscles and
tendons to maintain or increase suppleness, and it provides increased resistance to muscle injury or
soreness.
CARD I0- RESI IRA TO R I7END URANCE
The most essential component of physical fitness, is the el_cient functioning of the heart and lungs.
AEROBIC FITNESS
Is an exercise of relatively low intensity and long duration, which depends primarily on the aerobic
energy system. Aerobic means "with oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen in the body's metabolic
or energy-generating process. Many types of exercise are aerobic, and by definition are performed at
moderate levels of intensity for extended periods of time.
ANAEROBIC TRAINING"
Is an exercise intense enough to trigger anaerobic metabolism. This means "without oxygen" and
is the output of energy when the oxygen supply is insul_cient to meet the body's long term energy
demands. (For example, a 100 meter sprint.)

OXYGEN UPTAKE
The effort that you can exert over a prolonged period of time is limited by your ability to deliver
oxygen to the working muscles. Regular vigorous exercise produces a training effect that can increase
your aerobic capacity by as much as 20 to 30%. An increased VO2 Max indicates an increased ability
of the heart to pump blood, of the lungs to ventilate oxygen, and of the muscles to take up oxygen.
THE TRAINING" THRESHOLD
This is the minimum level of exercise which is required to produce significant improvements in any
physical fitness parameter.
0 VERLOAD
This is where you exercise above your comfort level. The intensity, duration and frequency of exercise
should be above the training threshold and should be gradually increased as the body adapts to the
increasing demands. As your fitness level improves, the training threshold should rise. Working
through your program and gradually increasing the overload factor is important.
PROGRES570N
As you become more fit, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore
provide continued improvement.
SPE CIFI (2S
Different forms of exercise produce different results. The type of exercise that is carried out is specific
to the muscle groups being used and to the energy source involved. There is little transfer of the
effects of exercise, i.e. from strength training to cardiovascular fitness. That is why it is important to
have an exercise program tailored to your specific needs.
REVERSIBILITY
If you stop exercising or do not do your program often enough, you will lose the benefits you have
gained. Regular workouts are the key to success.
WARM- U7)
Every exercise program should start with a warm-up where the body is prepared for the effort to
come. It should be gentle and preferably use the muscles group to be involved later. Stretching
should be included in both your warm-up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or calisthenic type exercise.
WARM DOWN OR (200L DOWN
This involves a gradual decrease in the intensity of the exercise session. Following exercise, a large
supply of blood remains in the working muscles. If it is not returned promptly to the central
circulation, pooling of blood may occur in the muscles.

HEART RATE
As you exercise, your heart beat increases. This is often used as a measure of the required intensity of
an exercise. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, and increase your
pulse rate, but not enough to strain your heart.
Your initial level of fitness is important when developing an exercise program for you. When starting,
you can get a good training effect with a heart rate of I 10-120 beats per minute (BPM). If you are
more fit, you will need a higher threshold of stimulation.
To begin with, you should exercise at a level that elevates your heart rate to about 65 to 70% of your
maximum. If you find this is too easy; you may want to increase it, but it is better to lean on the
conservative side.
As a rule of thumb, the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. As you increase in age, your
heart, like other muscles, loses some of its efficiency: Some of its natural loss is won back as fitness
improves. The following table is a guide to those who are "starting fitness."
Age Target Heart Rate 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65
10 Second Count 23 22 22 21 20 19 19 18 18
Beats per Minute 138 132 132 126 120 114 114 108 108
PULSE (]OUNT
The pulse count (on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers) is done
for ten seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds
is long enough for accuracy, (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are
exercising. Since heart rate slows as you recover, a longer count isn't as accurate.
The target is not a magic number, but a general guide. If you're above average with your fitness, you
may work comfortably a little above that suggested for your age group. The following table is a guide.
Age Target Heart Rate 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65
10 Second Count 26 26 25 24 23 22 22 21 20
Beats per Minute 156 156 150 144 138 132 132 126 120
DoNt push yourself too hard to reach the figures on this table. It can be very uncomfortable if you
over exercise. Let it happen naturally as you work through your program. Remember, the target is a
guide, not a rule, a little above or below is just fine.
Two final comments: (1) don't be concerned with day to day variations in your pulse rate, being
under pressure or not enough sleep can affect it; (2) your pulse rate is a guide, don't become a slave
to it.

MUSCLE SORENESS
For the first week or so, muscle soreness may be the only indication you have that you are on an
exercise program. This, of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you
are on the correct program is a very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal
and will disappear in a matter of days.
If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced, or you have
increased your program too rapidly:
If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling you something. Stop exercising
and consult your doctor.
WHA T TO WEAR
Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be
light enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you
normally would gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and will be replaced
with the next glass of water you drink. Always wear a pair of athletic shoes.
BREA THING" DURING EXERCISE
Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember,
breathing involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.
REST PERIODS
Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off
halfway through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage
again. The rest period required between exercises may vary from person to person.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES
Head Rolls
Rotate your head to the right for one count while feeling the stretch
up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one
count, stretching your chin to the ceiling. Rotate your head to the
left for one count, and finally; drop your head to your chest for one
count.
Shoulder Lifts
Lift your left shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift
your right shoulder up for one count as you lower your left shoulder.
Side Stretches
Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them until they are
over your head. Reach your left arm as far upward as you can for one
count. Feel the stretch up your left side. Repeat this action with your
right arm.
Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach behind you and pull
your left foot up. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible.
Hold for 15 counts and repeat with right foot up.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES
Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together with your knees pointing
outward. Pull your feet as close into your groin as possible. Gently
push your knees towards the floor. Hold for 15 counts.
Toe Touches
Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and
shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far
as you can and hold for 15 counts.
Hamstring Stretches
