ADJUSTMENTS
This section explains how to adjust the exercise rack. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 11 for important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying
exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.
Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the exercise rack. Replace any worn parts immediately. The exercise rack can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents
to clean the exercise rack.
ADJUSTING THE DIP ARM
To adjust the Dip Arm (7) to the up or down position,
first remove the Pin (22). Move the Dip Arm to the
new position and reinsert the Pin into the Dip Arm.
Note: The Pin must be inserted into the Dip Arm
and the Upright (4) when the Dip Arm is in the up
position, as shown in the drawing. The Pin will be
behind the Upright when the Dip Arm is in the
down position.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
MUSCLE BUILDING
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
push them close to their maximum capacity. Your muscles will continually adapt and grow as you progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can
adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in
two ways:
• by changing the amount of resistance used
• by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-
formed. (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 resistance for each exercise
depends upon the individual user. You must gauge
your limits and select the amount of resistance 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 resistance.
TONING
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate
amount of resistance 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
resistance.
WEIGHT LOSS
To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance 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
Cross training is an ef
well-balanced fitness program. An example of a balanced program follows:
Plan strength training workouts on Monday
•
Wednesday, and Friday.
Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as
•
running on a treadmill or riding on an exercise cycle
or an elliptical exerciser, on Tuesday and Thursday.
• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise
for at least one full day each week to give your body
time to regenerate.
The combination of strength training and aerobic exer
cise will reshape and strengthen your body
op your heart and lungs.

, plus devel
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
is an individual matter. It is 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,
emphasizing areas that you want to develop 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
Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an
fective exercise program. This requires moving
ef
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 guide accompany
ing this manual you will find photographs showing the
correct form for several exercises, and a list of the

Rest for one minute after each set for a toning work-
•
out.
• 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
ithout strain. Stretching at the end of each workout is
w
an effective way to increase flexibility.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. List the
date, the exercises performed, the resistance used,
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.
