Sensible progress: In short – a good warm-up time, repetitions with lightweight - improve muscle tone first, before beginning a muscle strengthening program. High repetitions with light weight improve muscle tone. Heavyweights with limited repetitions improve strength. Combinations of tone and strength result in muscular development, muscle recruitment (growth) and hypertrophy – increase in size. Then stretch ; cool.
