Frequency and repetition
- Each exercise should be repeated 3 times, before you move on to the next.
- Each body part has 7 core exercises, some with variations.
- We recommend that you do all exercises once per day. If you feel improvement you may increase the frequency to two times per day. If you feel pain, consider doing the exercises every other day.
