I did the training today, as an experiment, I used 45lbs(dry) and only did two sets( 10min @ 40%-50% then 10min @ 80%-90%). I understand that maybe I could extend my intensity time to 15min and maintain the 10min of rest. I'm trying to do baby steps here.

Have you been selected?
I would be hesitant to dispense advice without having actually completed any of the required training.
You might want to avoid starting new threads until you have.
