As with any training the regularity is important. How-
ever, the muscles addressed in the exercises need a
day's rest between workouts, so that, ideally, two or
three times a week should be trained.
Each of the exercises shown below should be per-
formed with one to three sets (each set with 6 - 25
repetitions). Work initially depending on the training
goal with twelve to 15 repetitions or 20 – 25. After a
few weeks you may – again depending on your fitness
goal – increase the weight and / or adjust the number
of repetitions.
Keep a sufficient body tension at any time during the
training. Lift your chest and pull in the abdomen, tight-
en your buttocks to keep your back straight, bend your
knees slightly and keep your wrists straight. Work out
slowly and evenly and breathe consciously.
