2.  Implementing A Weightlifting Program To Fit Your Busy
     Schedule
     Stephen Woessner

"I don't have time" is the number one excuse people use to
not implement a weightlifting program. Most fitness experts 
agree that even devoting just 30 minutes to strength training
two or three times a week is sufficient for strength and muscle
development...if it's a personalized, effective program. Here
are some tips on making time for weightlifting...

1. Make sure exercise is convenient Getting to your exercise
equipment should be easy and convenient. If you have to
drive a half an hour to get to your gym, you will view working
out as a chore. If you spend more time traveling to the gym 
than you do in the gym, you might want to consider a program 
that you can do in your home. 

2. Work several muscles in one exercise Another way to fit 
weightlifting into your busy schedule is to choose exercises that
work several major muscle groups at the same time. Squats or

demonstrations for these exercises.

works the quadriceps, hamstrings, buttocks, and calves. 
Essentially, you will be training four muscle groups at the 
same time with these exercises. 

3. Limit resting time Skip the usual minute or so of resting 
time between exercises. You can do this by doing what's 
called "Supersets," which involves doing two or more 
successive exercises for a given muscle group without rest 
in between. For example, do a set of the Shoulder Presses 
and follow them immediately with a set of Lateral Raises.

demonstration. 

4. Have alternate exercises for each muscle group Often 
times there will be someone working on the piece of 
equipment you want to use. You should always have a 
back-up plan, an alternate exercise that trains the same 
muscle group.
