USING THE WEIGHT RESTS AND SAFETY SPOTTERS
Before beginning an exercise, move the Weight Rests (19) and the Safety Spotters (20) to sets of holes in the Uprights (7, 8) that are best suited for that exercise. Do this by turning the Adjustment Knobs (22) counterclock­wise until loose. Pull the Knobs out and slide the Weight Rests or the Safety Spotters to the desired height. Snap the Knobs into the adjustment holes in the Uprights and turn the Knobs clockwise until tight.
The selected holes for the Safety Spotters (20) should represent the lowest point to which you want the barbell to go during the exercise. The selected holes for the Weight Rests (19) should be at a comfortable height for lifting and replacing the barbell. Perform the exercise as shown on the accompanying exercise chart. Note: Make
sure the Adjustment Knobs (22) are fully tightened.
ADJUSTING THE PAD TUBES
For some exercises, it may be necessary to move the Pad Tube (61) in the Adjustable Bench Leg (49). To do this, remove a Foam Pad (69) from one side of the Pad Tube. Slide the Pad Tube out of the Adjustable Bench Leg. Reinsert the Pad Tube into the lower welded tube on the Adjustable Bench Leg. Replace the Foam Pad on the Pad Tube.
To do leg raise exercises, the Pad Tube (61) must be moved to the lower welded tube, the narrow end of the seat must be raised, and the backrest must be declined as shown.
WARNING: Always set both Weight
Rests (19) at the same height and both Safety Spotters (20) at the same height.

TIGHTENING THE CABLES
Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight rack, can stretch slightly after it is first used. If there is slack in the cables, tighten them as described below.
Remove the M10 x 45mm Bolt (32) and the M10 Nylon Locknut (29) attaching the lower Pulley (24) and Cable Trap (23) to the two Pulley Plates (17). Reattach the lower Pulley and Cable Trap to the higher holes in the Pulley Plates using the Bolt and Nylon Locknut.
If moving just the lower Pulley (24) does not sufficiently tighten the cables, you can also move the upper Pulley down one set of holes in the Pulley Plates (17).

THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
Muscle Building
The only way to increase the size and strength of your muscles is to push them close to their maximum capacity. When you progressively increase the inten­sity of your exercise, your muscles will continually adapt and grow. You can tailor the individual exercise to the proper intensity level in two ways:
• by changing the amount of weight used
• by changing the number of repetitions or sets per­formed (A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of repetitions).
The proper amount of weight for each exercise obvi­ously depends upon the individual user. You must gauge your limits and select the amount of weight that is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for each exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after each set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repeti­tions without difficulty, increase the amount of weight.
Toning
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a mod­erate amount of weight and increase the number of repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15 to 20 repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest for 1 minute after each set. Work your muscles by completing more sets rather than by using high amounts of weight.
Weight Loss
To lose weight, use a low amount of weight and increase the number of repetitions in each set. Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum of 30 seconds between sets.
Cross Training
Many people desire a complete and balanced fitness program. Cross training is an efficient way to accom­plish this. One example of a balanced program is:
• Plan weight training workouts on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as cycling, running, or swimming on Tuesday and Thursday.
• Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise for at least one full day each week to give your body time to regenerate.
The combination of weight training and aerobic exer­cise will reshape and strengthen your body and devel­op your heart and lungs.
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Specifying the exact length of time for each workout, as well as the number of repetitions or sets for each exercise, is a highly individual matter. It is very impor­tant to avoid overdoing it during the first few months of your exercise program. You should progress at your own pace and be sensitive to your body’s sig­nals. If you experience pain or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. Find out what is wrong before continuing. Remember that adequate rest and a proper diet are important factors in any exercise program.
WARMING UP
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing circulation, raising your body temperature and deliver­ing more oxygen to your muscles.
WORKING OUT
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis­es. Select exercises for every major muscle group with emphasis on the areas that you want to develop the most. To give balance and variety to your work­outs, vary the exercises from session to session.
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your energy level is the highest. Each workout should be followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the schedule that is right for you, stick with it.
EXERCISE FORM
You will gain the greatest benefits from exercising by maintaining proper form. This requires moving through the full range of motion for each exercise and moving only the appropriate parts of the body. Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you feeling exhausted. On the exercise poster accompa­nying this manual, you will find photographs showing the correct form for several exercises. A description of each exercise is also provided, along with a list of the muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page 18 to find the locations of the muscles.
The repetitions in each set should be performed smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of each repetition should last about half as long as the return stage. Proper breathing is important. Exhale during the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale during the return stroke. Never hold your breath.
Exercise Guidelines
18
Make sure to rest for a short period of time after each set. The ideal resting periods are:
• Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle building workout.
• Rest for one minute after each set for a toning work­out.
• Rest for 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss workout.
Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing yourself with the equipment and learning the proper form for each exercise.
COOLING DOWN
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into
each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout is very effective for increasing flexibility.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The chart on page 19 of this manual can be photocopied and used to schedule and record your workouts. List the date, the exercises performed, the weight, and the numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record your weight and key body measurements at the end of every month.
Remember, the key to achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
