5BX CHART III

Exercise chart three continues the vigorous workout found in Chart 2. In this chart you will find physical capacity rating scales for middle aged groups. This chart is very demanding and may take longer to complete each level than the previous two charts.

Do not despair.  Continue working on each exercise until you can complete each in its allotted time. Defeat the temptation to skip days, you must continue on your regular schedule of exercises to fully benefit.
