DO NOT TAKE THE NEXT STEP unless and until you can move to the next level easily and effortlessly. Once you have completed the ve exercises of the rst lesson to the last level, then you are entitled to move to the rst level of the second lesson and increase your exercises gradually as explained before. Remember that it is the same exercise in the rst level and the last level, only the number of movements increases. When you move to the next lesson, only then the nature of exercises change.

Up to 20 years of age: Spend at least one day on each step. 2. 20 - 39 years of age: At least 2 days on each step. 3. 30 – 39 years of age: At least 4 days on each step. 4. 40 – 49 years of age: At least 7 days on each step. 5. 50 – 59 years of age: At least 8 days on each step. 6. Over 60 years of age: At least 10 days on each step. Warning: If some one nds it difcult to move to the next step within the above proposed period, then he should continue on the same step for as long as he likes. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT REDUCE THE DAYS GIVEN IN THE CHART. For instance, even if a forty nine year old can take the next step in less than four days, he MUST NOT graduate to the next step.
