Well, I leapt in fairly quickly because I'd already been working with dumbbells & the home gym for several months and can do a large number of sit-ups and push-ups without excessive strain. Cardio-wise, I'm also in pretty good shape. Still, I pushed vastly further than I had before because (a) I was feeling (foolishly) ambitious, (b) I had theoctothorpe spotting & advising me so I was comfortable pushing further, and (c) the equipment allowed it more than my simpler home system. I overdid it, and paid the price. Mercifully there was no damage but to my overly-sensitive ego.
And I'm glad I brought a little amusement into your life. :-)
