ATTACHINGAND REMOVINGTHESEATSUPPORT

The seat support should be attached to the system;/as described in the assembly instructions. For

certain exercises, the seat support must be removed. First, remove the lower cable from the leg lever. Then, lift the seat support until the bracket on the seat support is free of the pins on the frame.

ATFACHING THE LEG LEVER TO THE WEIGHT SYSTEM

To attach the leg lever to the weight system, attach the cable extension between the leg lever and the lower cable with two connector links. (See fig. 1)

ATTACHING THE LAT BAR TO THE WEIGHT SYSTEM

To attach the lat bar directly to the lower cable, first disconnect

the cable extension from the leg lift. Remove the seat support from the frame as described above. Attach the lat bar to the

cable extension using a connector link. (See fig. 2)

To use the lat bar with the middle or upper cable, the chain

two connector links. The chain can be shortened by attaching the connector links closer together along the chain. IMPOR- TANT: The proper length of chain between the lat bar and the upper cable should be determined by the exercise to

be performed. Adjust the length of chain until the lat bar is in a comfortable starting position. (See fig. 3, 4)

ATrACHING THE ROWER BAR TO THE WEIGHT SYSTEM

The rower bar should be attached to the weight system in the same manner as the lat bar. See

ADJUSTING THE WEIGHT SYSTEM

Ifthere is slack in the weight system before the weight

engages, the cables may need to be adjusted. To adjust the cables, a phillips screwdriver and two adjustable wrenches

(not included) are required. Remove the screws from the right side shield, and carefully move the side shield out of the way. (See fig. 1.) Locate the two pulleys connected by two l-

brackets. The I-brackets have a selection of ten holes which tighten the cables in small increments. Remove the upper

pulley from the two I-brackets using two adjustable wrenches. Move the pulley to the next lower hole in the I-brackets. (Figure 2 shows the order the top pulley should move down to tighten the weight system.) Reattach the upper pulley to the I- brackets in the new position. Test the weight system before reattaching the side shield. If the motor stalls or hesitates, the

cable istoo tight. Move the pulley back to the previous hole. If there is still slack in the weight system, move the cable to

the next lower hole as described above, if the cable is attached to the lowest hole in the i-brackets and there is still

slack in the weight system, the cables should be replaced (refer to the back cover). Reattach the side shield.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES ....

WARNING: Before beglnnlng any exerclse program, consult wlth your physlclan. This Is espe- clallv ImDortant for Indivlduals over the a__eof 35 or persons wlth pre-existing health problems.

WEIGHT TRAINING

This system offers a full selection of weight training exercises. Follow the guidelines below to outline an exercise program to achieve the specific results you want. Your exercise program should include three, 30-minute workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. Each workout should include 6-10 different exercises. Select exercises for all major muscle groups, with emphasis on the areas you want to develop most. To give variety and balance to your workouts, vary the exercises from day to day.

To increase the size and strength of muscles, the muscles must be worked to capacity. Each exercise should be tailored to the proper intensity level by changing the amount of weight used, or the number

of "repetitions"and "sets"performed. (A "repetition"is a single exercise movement, such as one sit-up. A "set" is a number of repetitions performed continuously.)

Be careful not to overexert yourself. Begin and end everyworkout with 5-10 minutes of stretching or light calisthenics. Rest for 30 seconds after each set, and 1 minute after each exercise. Concentrate

on learning the exercises correctly. Exhale as you exert yourself, and inhale as you relax. Never hold your breath. Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your energy level is highest.

Wear clothing that is loose-fitting and allows unrestricted movement. Always wear shoes for foot protection. For added motivation, keep a record of your workouts. List the dates, exercises performed,

weight used, and number of repetitions and sets completed. Record key body measurements every 4- 6 weeks. For successful results, proper nutrition and adequate rest are also essential. For more

information about exercise and diet, consult with your physician.

CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONING

The leg lever, lat bar and press bar can be used for an excellent cardiovascular workout. Set the weight at the lowest setting and do as many repetitions and sets as desired. For an effective cardio-

vascular workout, your heart rate should be kept at a level between 70% and 85% of your maximum

heart rate. This is your "training zone." You can find your training zone by consulting the table below.

Training zones are listed for both unconditioned and conditioned persons, ages 20 to 85 years.

50 129-156 124-150

During the first few weeks of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low end of your training zone. To measure

your heart rate, stop exercising and place two fingers on your wrist as shown. Carefully take a six-second heartbeat count.

your six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. A six-second count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly after you stop exercising.) Compare your heart

rate to your training zone; If your heart rate is below your training zone, increase the intensity of your exercise. If your heart rate is too high, decrease the intensity of your exercise.

Begin and end every workout with 5-10 minutes of stretching or light calisthenics. Exercise with your

heart rate in your training zone for about 30 minutes. It makes no difference whether this is done in

one continuous 30-minute period, or in a few shorter periods, such as three 10-minute periods. To

maintain or improve your condition, exercise three times per week, with at least one day of rest

between workouts. After a few months, the number of workouts can be increased to 4-5 per week.
