A circuit means you’re doing one set of several exercises in a row. i.e first exercise for 10 reps, move to second exercise for 10 reps, then move to third exercises and do 10 reps, this is one set. Start on exercise and repeat all over for prescribed number of sets.
Please note that there might be prescribed rest between exercises in a circuit, if this is the case it will be noted next to the sets and reps.
-
The prescribed rest period between sets will be noted next to the sets and the reps. 2 min means 2 minutes and 90 means 90 seconds.
Generally you want to rest at least 90 seconds and preferably up to 2-3 minutes when doing strength work to fully recover between sets. This allows you to do more volume which will drive muscular growth.
-
If there are several prescribed number of sets (3-4 or 3-5) this means that you could be doing a different amount of sets depending on how you feel.
If you’re still moving well with good technique after 3 sets we strongly recommend you do 4 or 5 sets to take advantage of a good training day, as this will result in more stimulus on the days you feel good.
-
Unilateral training (using one leg or one arm and so on at the time) is the foundation of all our programs, so this simply means that you do 10 reps with your left or right leg or arm before switching to the other leg or arm for 10 more reps, meaning 10+10 is a full set.
-
The L or R simply means left or right arm or leg. Sometimes it’s prescribed that you do multiple exercises in a row using only your left or right side before switching to the other side.
-
If you miss the occasional workout don’t worry about it, just go on with the next session. If you know you won't be able to complete more than say 3 out of 5 days it’s possible to move the workouts inside the app by yourself, so you can postpone them by yourself.
Please contact your trainer using the in-app chat or send us an e-mail at info@unilat.se for further assistance.

A gym membership is not needed for all the Unilat™ programs, but we do suggest you have access to at least a pair of dumbbells or kettlebells to complete the workouts as they’re intended.
