This is the Beginner Level plan. This is for those who are new to exercising, or who haven’t been exercising in a while. You should consult your physician before beginning a structured exercise program to make sure that you are physically able to exercise.
Each exercise plan is built upon, periodization, which is the idea of cycles which increase in intensity in a fixed pattern. Each week increases the intensity of the exercise. While each day during that week increases the duration so you get the maximum benefit. As you continue to exercise, your body becomes more efficient, and the more efficient that you become, the less energy you use. This is why variation in your routine is important. To get the most out of your routine, you have to challenge your body in new ways, which is why none of these routine is for longer than 4 weeks.
Always make sure that you stretch before and after exercising. You can get some tips on proper stretching at www.gettingfit.com/warmup.html
