Default Starting @ Home Agility

So I ordered a set off Amazon, still waiting for it to come in and I'm wondering, how did you all start off? I'm going to go check our bookstore this weekend to see if there is a book on it, but I know that Yorkies can be pretty special on everything
Rizzo is highly food motivated, so that should be easy enough, my only problem is that he gets so excited about getting a treat that he'll just start doing everything that I taught him hoping to get the treat, a simple "sit" will turn into him sitting, then going into down, then popping back into sit, then a beg, and then a bow, lol. This is after playing outside with him for 30+ minutes of just running, fetching, playing with kitties...He's only 10 months old so it makes sense, but man is he hyper. I figure agility will be a great way to mix obedience training with exercise but do you all think I should exercise him first then start training, or just use the agility as exercise?
Either way, after watching the videos I'm pretty excited, and I think this'll be something that Rizzo will love.
