[quote=Anonymous]I'm close to 60 and after neglecting exercise for ages am finally getting to the gym 3 times a week and enjoying it in spite of myself. I'm ramping up on the treadmill for aerobic exercise. For strength training I'm doing circuit training each time. I wonder what the best repetition scheme for me is. Not a bodybuilder, just wanting to keep in shape. Doing an internet search give a wide variation of schemes, so I thought I'd ask for suggestions here. Here is what I do: I try to do two sets of 10 at each station, smoothly, slowly, in control. When I get to that point, I increase the weight so maybe I can do one set of 10 and then a few more repetitions in the next set, short of the full 10. When I build up to two sets of 10 again, I increase the weight. [/quote]
