SUPERSETS

The whole session can be broken down into three sets of exercises, to be attempted one after another, without a break in between. You can take a break to recover after the first circuit. It is possible to work both with dumbbells or a straight bar (or Larry Scott). It is also possible tochange the weights used from one exercise to the next – as long as the time taken doesn't turn into a break. FIRST MOVEMENT : It is important that you avoid swinging the upper part of the body during this movement. To do this, you should : Put one leg in front of the other, or, Press yourself against a wall. In the latter case, both feet are level, the knees should be slightly flexed to help you move your pelvis. Carry out 8 to 15 repetitions. Even if it seems easy the first time round, think of the next two attempts to follow. SECOND MOVEMENT : Don’t change your basic positioning. One leg in front of the other, or pressed against a wall. 8 to 15 repetitions without a pause after the first movement. Things are getting serious now, you can, if you need to, put down your dumbbells for as long as it takes you to pick up a different weight - then carry on. THIRD MOVEMENT : It is important that you avoid swinging the upper part of the body during this movement. To do this, you should : Put one leg in front of the other, or, Press yourself against a wall.
