Do you have the book? It explains how to read the charts.

Basically, if an exercise only has a letter, it's stand-alone. If it has a letter and a number, you do all the exercises with that letter in sequence.

In this case, for workout 1, you'd do two sets of 15 squats, with 60 seconds between sets. Then you'd do 15 pushups, rest 15 seconds, do 15 seated rows, rest 60 seconds, then repeat the pushups and rows.

Next you'd do the same thing with step-ups and prone jackknives: 15 step-ups, rest, 8 jackknives, rest, 15 step-ups, rest, 8 jackknives, rest. Well, then you're done, so I guess resting is a given. [g]

Make sense?
