KEY SYMBOLS:
Effort Level (EL):
Effort Level refers to the rating of 1-10 and will describe how hard
the set is for you.
A “6” would be moderate, “9” would be very hard, and “10” is
complete muscle failure.
The required EL is always the priority.
It will always be your responsibility to determine if an exercise is too easy or hard to match
desired EL. If it is, please adjust the repetitions accordingly.
That means if you have to do a repetition less or more to hit the targeted EL, please do.
Supersets (+):
Exercises joined together by a “+” must be completed in a superset. This is when multiple
exercises are performed back to back with NO rest.
Example 1:
5 Pull Ups + 5 Australian Pull ups.
Example 2:
10 Dips + 10 Push ups.
Time Under Tension (TUT):
Is the amount of time you have to hold a certain isometric position.
Example:
Pull up with chin over bar Hold (TUT: 10”) It means you have to hold the Pull up position with
your chin over the bar for 10 Seconds.
Warm up:
15’ (or more) of light exercises designed to increase the body temperature before EVERY

The goal is to get the blood flowing and brings fluids to the joints.
