In fact something like an MRP, or even a 1/2 of one will be nice. One note of consequence here. My posts cater to the more advanced that are looking to be better, that have been training for a while, and looking to take things up a notch. When you first start, anything will work. So don't be concerned. Now, if you have been doing this a while, and are training with intensity and want to crank it up a notch, then these guidelines are for you. If not, "just do it!" -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything....
