The author states that a good workout program should be tailored to your individual fitness goals, experience level, and lifestyle. It should also be challenging enough to help you improve, but not so challenging that it leads to injury.
The author then goes on to discuss some common mistakes that people make when designing their workout programs. One common mistake is to focus too much on cardio and not enough on strength training.

When you start a new workout program, it's important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts over time.
