Note: When adding resistance, always start with the
heaviest resistance bar to be used, and finish with the
lightest resistance bar. When removing resistance
bars from the “U”-channels, start with the lightest
resistance bar and finish with the heaviest.
WARNING: When adding resist-
ance, make sure that both ends of the resistance bar rest under the two “U”-channels. The
rings on the Removable Resistance Bars (36,
67) must be pushed against the Tray (35). Do
not add or remove resistance bars from the
“U”-channels while an end of the Long Cable
(80) is pulled out.
Note: The resistance system uses progressive resistance. As the resistance bars begin to bend, the
amount of resistance will increase gradually. As the
resistance bars bend further, the resistance will
increase rapidly.
Note: Additional resistance can be added to the
resistance system. To purchase more resistance,
call the toll-free phone number on the front cover of
this manual and ask for model number WEMC0642
(100-pound MAX PACK) or WEMC0942 (200-pound
ACK).

STORING THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM
To store the resistance system, make sure the Seat
(13) is in the position closest to the Front Leg (6) (see
ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 12). Next, remove
the Storage Knob (30) from the Upright (3). Lift the
Front Leg toward the Top Upright (4), and tighten the
Storage Knob into the side of the Upright and the
Bench Rail (5).
Remove all of the resistance bars from the “U”-channels on the 10-pound Center Resistance Bar (44)
(see ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE on page 13).
Finally, loosen the Fulcrum Knob (43) and pull it out
as far as it will go. Turn the resistance bar assembly
vertically and engage the Fulcrum Knob into the fulcrum on the Top Upright (4).
resistance bars vertically will prolong the life of
the resistance bars.
To move the resistance system, place the toe of your
shoe on the end of the Base (1) and hold the resistance system in the indicated area. Tilt the resistance
system back onto the Wheels (31) and roll it to the
new location.
pinch your hands when you tilt the system back.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS
Muscle Building
o increase the size and strength of your muscles,
T
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 T
Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and
well-balanced fitness program. An example of a balanced program is:
• 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 elliptical or
exercise bike, 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 exercise will reshape and strengthen your body, plus develop your heart and lungs.
raining
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM
Determining the exact length of time for each workout,
s well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,
a
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
effective exercise program. 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 guide accompany
ing this manual you will find photographs showing the
correct form for several exercises, and a list of the
muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on the following page to find the names 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.

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
w
is an effective way to increase flexibility.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The
charts on pages 18 and 19 of this manual can be photocopied and used to schedule and record your workouts. 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.
