Congratulations on purchasing your new Total Gym®!

With this product in your home, you have everything you need to start your own workout program, to tone and strengthen the important muscle groups of your upper and lower body. This is vital for all of us, regardless of age, sex, or fitness level, and regardless of whether your primary goal is body sculpting, weight control, health maintenance, or more energy for daily activities.

Strength training not only tones and conditions the muscles we use every day to stand, walk, lift, and turn; it can actually transform our body composition. By reducing body fat and increasing the proportion of lean muscle in our bodies, strength training can effectively turn up our metabolic thermostat, so that we burn up to 30% more calories all the time, no matter what we’re doing.

It’s easy—all you have to do is spend 10 to 15 minutes a day on your Total Gym®to start realizing the benefits.

Be sure to read through this owner’s manual carefully.

It is the authoritative source of information about your Total Gym®.

Lay shipping box flat and open carton top.

Remove corner tape from the carton bottom (as indicated by the X’s). Remove all packaging materials, including cardboard inserts, from your Total Gym

Lift gym up from opposite end of squat stand. Make sure that it rests solidly on the squat stand. Remove the two accessories from under the bench.

Extend Total Gym

out in the following manner:

(4a) Place one hand on the edge of the frame. With your

other hand, take hold of the support column and begin to pull it out until the frame is lying flat on the floor.

Be sure to support the frame in the center to avoid having the product drop suddenly onto the floor.

(4b) The spring-loaded pin on the right rail will automatically
