Basic suggestions :
a) For beginners, it is best to do one set of 12 to 15 repetitions of each exercise.
b) Intermediate exercisers (those that have been lifting weights for up to three months) can perform one to two sets of each exercise.
c) More advanced strength trainers (those who have been lifting weights or using tubing for more than three months) should try to complete two or three sets of 12 to 15 repetitions.
d) Stretch each muscle group after each set and at the end of the entire workout to improve flexibility.
