You can find fresh whole flax seed at health food stores and natural grocery stores such as Whole Foods. You can also order it on line from companies such as Stevens Farm, which grows its own flax and cleans and grades it for human consumption.

2) Do as many reps as you can in good form, and then write down load used (or color of elastic band) and number of reps.

3) Rest EXACTLY 20 seconds.

4) Do another set of as many reps as you can. Obviously, you won’t get as many reps this set as you did on your first, provided you challenged yourself on first set, and assuming you're not some sort of genetic Density freak. 5) Rest EXACTLY 20 seconds. 6) Repeat steps 3-6 using same load each set until you get to a total of 50 reps.

7) Once you’ve achieved 50 reps (or even up to 100 if you’re an advanced trainee who knows they respond better to higher volume), you’re done!

8) On your subsequent workout, you’ll do everything exactly same, EXCEPT, you’ll cut your rest periods by 5 seconds to 15 seconds.

9) Once you’re down to 5 second rest periods, you can move on to something different (ideally a routine that stresses progression by Load or Acceleration), or you can repeat this routine for one more cycle using slightly heavier loads.

This is only one variant of Density Training you could employ, but it’s one of simplest, and that’s why I like it so much!
