Q. Do I have to be really good at using a computer to do the plan?

A. The daily training will guide you ahead step by step and will give you a day by day progress chart which shows how you are doing.

 

 

Q. How many minutes does each session take?

 

A. For optimum results, about 20 minutes a day, 4 times a week is recommended.  It is known that ongoing training produces better results.

 

 

Q. Can I do more than one session in a day?

 

A. You may wish to do more than one session a day because it is enjoyable, but it is not likely to be of benefit. It is known that some sleep time is required to consolidate your gains. Just do one session a day and sleep on it and you will get better results.
