What the cautions rest on
The safety points above come from these, not from house opinion.

- Adults benefit from regular aerobic activity across the week alongside muscle-strengthening work on two or more days.
- The energy cost of an activity can be estimated from its MET value, bodyweight and duration.
Who checked this
Nobody qualified has. These are standard coaching points and ordinary gym safety, written down: how to set the thing up, what to control, and when to stop a set. They are not a clinical opinion and no physiotherapist or strength coach has read them back. If they disagree with somebody who can actually see you lift, believe that person.
