EXECISE GUIDELINES
Building Muscle and Gaining Weight
Unlike aerobic exercise, which emphasizes endurance training, anaerobic exercise focuses on
strength training. A gradual weight gain can occur while building the size and strength of muscles.
While developing muscle mass, your body adapts to the stress placed upon it. You can modify your
diet to include foods such as meat, fish and vegetables. These foods help muscles recover and
replenish important nutrients after a strenuous workout.
Muscle Strength and Endurance
To achieve the greatest benefit from exercise, it is important to develop an exercise program that
allows you to work all of the major muscle groups equally.
To increase muscle strength, follow this principle:
Increasing resistance and maintaining the number of repetitions of an exercise results in increased
muscle strength.
To tone your body, follow this principle: Decreasing resistance plus increasing the number of
repetitions of an exercise results in increased body tone.
Once you feel comfortable with an exercise, you can change the resistance, the number of
repetitions, or the speed at which you do the exercise. It is not necessary to change all three
variables. For example, let’s say that you are training at 23 kg (50 lb.) and performing the exercise 10
times in 3 minutes. When this becomes too easy, you may decide to move up to lifting 27 kg (60 lb.)
for the same number of repetitions in the same amount of time. Lifting more weights fewer times most
often develops muscle strength. To gain both muscle strength and endurance, it is recommended that
you perform each exercise 15 to 20 reps per set.
Training Intensity
How hard you begin to train depends on your overall level of fitness. The soreness you experienced
can be lessened by decreasing the load you place on your muscles and by performing fewer sets. To
avoid injury, you should gradually work into an exercise program and set the load to your individual
fitness level. The load should increase as your fitness level increases.
Muscle soreness is common, especially when you first start exercising. If you are painfully sore for a
long time, it may be time to change your program. Eventually, your muscle system will become
accustomed to the stress and strain placed on it.

Beginning a Strength Building Program
Warming Up
To begin strength training, it is important to stretch and perform light exercise for 5 to 10 minutes.
This helps prepare the body for more strenuous exercise by increasing circulation, raising your body
temperature and developing more oxygen to your muscles.
Workout
For each workout, to keep in mind that muscle soreness that lasts for a long period is not desirable
and may mean that injury has occurred.
Cool Down
At the end of each workout, perform slow stretching exercises for 5 to 10 minutes. Ease into each
stretch only going as far as you can. This stage allows your muscles to wind down after training.
To provide a total workout program it is also recommended that 2 to 3 days of aerobic exercise is
performed in addition to the strength training.
Drinking Water
For the body to function properly, it must be properly hydrated. If you are exercising, you should
increase your fluid intake. The reason for this is that the water you take in will leave your system
through the sweating mechanism that cools your body during exercise. The water you lose through
exercise must be replaced so that the muscles can recover properly.
Rest Day
Although you may not feel like doing it, taking a rest day at least once a week is important because it
gives your body a chance to heal it self. Continuously working your muscles will result in over-
training, which will not benefit you in the long run.

INSTRUCTIONS LIÉES AUX EXERCICES
Développement des muscles et prise de poids
Contrairement à l’exercice aérobique qui met l’accent sur l’entraînement d’endurance, l’exercice
anaérobique est axé sur l’entraînement en force musculaire. La prise de poids graduelle peut survenir
alors que les muscles se développent et prennent de la force. Lorsque la masse musculaire se
développe, le corps s’adapte au stress qui lui est imposé. Vous pouvez modifier votre alimentation en
consommant de la viande, du poisson et des légumes. Ces aliments aident les muscles à récupérer
et à se réapprovisionner en éléments nutritifs après une séance d’exercices rigoureux.
Force musculaire et endurance
Afin de profiter au maximum des bienfaits de l’exercice, il est important d’établir un programme
d’exercices permettant de faire travailler tous les principaux groupes musculaires de manière égale.
Pour augmenter votre force musculaire, augmentez la résistance et maintenez le nombre de
répétitions de l’exercice.
Pour tonifier vos muscles, réduisez la résistance et augmentez le nombre de répétitions de l’exercice.
Une fois que vous êtes à l’aise avec un exercice, vous pouvez modifier la résistance, le nombre de
répétitions ou la vitesse à laquelle vous faites l’exercice. Il n’est pas nécessaire de modifier les trois
variables. Par exemple, disons que vous vous entraînez avec 22 kg (50 lb) et faites l’exercice 10 fois
en 3 minutes. Lorsque l’exercice devient trop facile, vous pouvez passer à 27 kg (60 lb) et faire le
même nombre de répétitions dans le même temps. La force musculaire se développe lorsque les
poids sont plus lourds, mais soulevés moins souvent. Si vous désirez développer votre force
musculaire et votre endurance en même temps, il est recommandé de faire chaque exercice de 15 à
20 fois par série.
Intensité de l’entraînement
Au début, l’intensité de votre entraînement dépend de votre condition physique générale.
L’endolorissement des muscles peut être diminué en réduisant le poids soulevé et en réduisant le
nombre de séries d’exercices. Afin d’éviter les blessures, il est préférable de commencer par des
exercices légers et d’établir le poids selon votre condition physique. Le poids devrait augmenter selon
l’amélioration de votre condition physique.
Il est normal d’avoir les muscles endoloris, surtout au début d’un programme d’exercices. Si la
douleur dure longtemps, c’est peut-être le moment de modifier le programme. Éventuellement, votre
système musculaire s’accoutumera au stress et à la tension qu’il subit.
