2 Program Guide PROGRAM GOALS This program will give women the opportunity to do short but effecnve exercise rounnes on a daily basis at the comfort of their own home with the use of limited exercise equipment that is readily available to all. The goal is to monvate women to start moving and tone their bodies, especially those who are completely new to exercise and don t know where to start. This program is suitable for women of all ages who are facing problems with being overweight or too skinny. We have tesnmonials of women who managed to lose 12 kilos, while others have succeeded in puxng on a few extra kilos due to their commitment to the program.

Friday & Saturday will be dedicated for warming up and cooling down exercises to get all the benefits of stretching It is advisable to before starnng the daily workout rounne & cool down upon finishing throughout the duranon of the program. However, the mennoned will become very important to do starnng week 5 where the workouts become harder.

A daily workout rounne has 2 main exercises where each will be done for 45 seconds followed by 15 second rest. (The total duranon of the video is 2 minutes) When you finish the 2 exercises, you will do rope skipping. The above will be repeated two more Nmes making the daily workout: 3 rounds of 2 main exercises where each round is ended by rope skipping ROPE SKIPPING The number of rope skips will vary depending on the week. E.g. 1 = 10 skips, week 2 =20 skips, week 3 = 30 skips week 12 = 120 skips The duranon of a daily rounne will start at 7 minutes and will gradually increase in line with the increased number of rope skips There are dedicated posts for rope skipping alternanves on Gymandz Instagram & Facebook accounts.

3 Program Guide SORE MUSCLES AFTER THE WORKOUTS You may find the workout rounnes difficult at the beginning and may feel muscle soreness especially if you are not used to exercising.

Listen to my instrucnons carefully & pay close acennon to your form while exercising and try to perfect it as much as you can. Remedies to relief muscle soreness: Ginger Tea 2 3 Liters of water Magnesium supplements Hot shower Massage Walking Soreness will go away with Nme because your muscles will be stronger and more acnve.
