Strength Training RoutinesBelow are some sample strength training routines. With the video demonstrations of each workout, you will see the proper execution of each exercise, thereby learning proper form and technique.Be sure and read the strength training guidelines before actually beginning your routine. I have included a demonstration of the appropriate stretch between each exercise in the first video; this way you can do some flexibility conditioning utilizing an active rest of 30-60 seconds between sets.
