PHA MUSCLE SCULPTING WORKOUT
This workout will take you between 45 -60minutes to complete. You’ll be performing four
exercises back to back, upper and lower. There is an emphasis on using heavier weights to
sculpt and tone specific muscles. There are two rep ranges for each exercise. Once you can
reach the higher number then it’s time to increase the load and return to the lower rep
range. This ensures you are moving forward and getting the most out of the working
muscles.
Warm Up X-trainer for 6 minutes start at level 6 at 130-140rpm. At the end of each minute increase the resistance by 2 levels.

Cool Down & Regeneration Walk on the treadmill. Take your heart rate and then walk at a fairly steady pace until your heart rate returns to 120 beats per minute or lower. At first this may take up to 5 minutes but as your heart and lungs become more efficient you’ll recover faster. This is because your muscles are more efficient at performing the work load, your heart gets stronger as it can pump more blood around the body in less beats and the capacity of your lungs increases. In a nutshell you are getting fitter.
Follow up with the stretching routine below holding each one between 15-30 seconds.
