You’ll need to keep a keen eye on the clock regarding rest periods between sets. They will be shorter than you’re accustomed to. Proper form will be a must in order for the program to be successful. No jerking, bouncing, or heaving the weight up just for the sake of finishing a lift. Don’t think of this as a program where you’re lifting weights. Think of it as a muscle training session.
