#Do not push yourself too hard. Everyone has a different physical limit. If you exercise at a rate or frequency beyond what you are physically capable of doing, you could injure yourself. Listen to your body to identify what your limit is. If you find you’re unable to lift a certain weight, do not try to lift even more. If you’re panting or gasping for air at the end of a workout, you might be pushing yourself too hard and risking injury.<Ref>http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/fitness/in-depth/exercise-intensity/art-20046887</reF>[[Image:Treat Familial Hypercholesterolemia Step 7.jpg|center]]
