with this weight bench (7’ olympic bar includ-
ed).
10. Always make sure there is an equal amount
of weight on each side of the olympic bar
(included) when you are using it.
11. The weight bench is designed to support a
maximum of 560 pounds, including the user,
a barbell and weights. Do not place more

19. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-
ing down.

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 inten-
sity 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 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 weight for each exercise obvi-
ously 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 repeti-
tions 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 mod-
erate 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 well-balanced fit-
ness program, and cross training is a very 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 exer-
cise will reshape and strengthen your body plus
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 impor-
tant 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 sig-
nals. 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 deliver-
ing more oxygen to your muscles.
WORKING OUT
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-
es. 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 work-
outs, 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 accompa-
nying 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!

You should rest for a short period of time after each
set. The ideal resting periods are:
• Rest three minutes after each set for a muscle build-
ing workout
• Rest one minute after each set for a toning workout
• Rest 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 MOTIV ATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The
chart on page 18 of this manual can be photocopied
and used to schedule and record your workouts. List
the date, the exercises performed, the weight plus 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.
