Warm up 5-10 min before starting and stretch afterward.

why it works
3 key reasons
Constant tension at medium-high reps: you define without bulking, with just enough weight to fire the fiber.
Mastering your own bodyweight builds relative strength and control machines can't give you.
6 days: high frequency, each group trained twice a week to maximize total volume.
