The Weak-Point Workout

THE WEAK-POINT WORKOUT
DIRECTIONS FREQUENCY: You can either alternate Workouts A and B three times a week (perform Workout A on Monday, B on Wednesday, A again on Friday, and then begin the next week with Workout B) or integrate each session into your current program. (So you could perform your regular upper-body routine on Monday, then Workout A on Wednesday, your regular lower-body routine on Friday, and then Workout B the following Monday.) Regardless of how you schedule your workouts, make sure you rest at least one day between Workouts A and B and any other session.

HOW TO DO IT: Perform each exercise pair (1A and 1B, 2A and 2B, etc.) as alternating sets, resting the prescribed amount of time between each set. (So you'll do one set of 1A, rest, then one set of 1B, rest again, and so on for all the sets in that pair.) Perform the remaining exercises as straight sets, completing all sets for one exercise before moving on to the next.

WEIGHT: For exercises 1A, 2A, and 3A, use no more than 10 pounds. For the rest, use the heaviest weight you can handle for the prescribed reps.
