ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two persons.
•
• Because of its size and weight, assemble the
weight bench in the location where it will be
sed. Make sure that there is enough clear-
u
ance to walk around the weight bench as you
assemble it.
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove
the packing materials. Do not dispose of the
packing materials until you complete all
assembly steps.
• To identify small parts, see page 5.
1.
To make assembly easier, read the tips at
the top of this page before you begin.
Orient the Front Stabilizer (2) so that the square
holes are facing the floor.

and the Front Leg (4). Do not tighten the
Screw yet.
The following tools (not included) may be
•
required for assembly:
two adjustable wrenches
one standard screwdriver
one Phillips screwdriver
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
OUR TYPES OF STRENGTH WORKOUTS
F
Note: A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of
epetitions.
r
o determine the appropriate length of time for each
t
workout, and the numbers of repetitions and sets to
complete. Progress at your own pace and be sensitive
to your bodyʼs signals. Follow each strength workout
ith at least one day of rest.
w
Muscle Building—Work your muscles near their maximum capacity and progressively increase the intensity
of your exercise. Adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise as follows:
• Change the amount of resistance used.
• Change the number of repetitions or sets performed.
Use your own judgment to determine the amount of
resistance that is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8
repetitions for each exercise that 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—Tone your muscles by working 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—Combine strength training and aerobic exercise by following this type of program:
• Strength workouts on Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday.
• 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise on Tuesday
and Thursday.
• One full day of rest each week to give your body
time to regenerate.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Familiarize yourself with the equipment and learn the
proper form for each exercise. Use your own judgment
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Working Out—Include 6 to 10 different exercises in
each workout. Select exercises for every major muscle
group, emphasizing areas that you want to develop. To
give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the
exercises from workout to workout.
Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your
muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FORM
Move through the full range of motion for each exercise and move only the appropriate parts of the body.
Perform the repetitions in each set smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of each repetition
should last about half as long as the return stage.
Exhale during the exertion stage of each repetition and
inhale during the return stroke. Never hold your
breath.
Rest for a short period of time after each set:
• Muscle Building—Rest for three minutes after each
set.
• Toning—Rest for one minute after each set.
• Weight Loss—Rest for 30 seconds after each set.
STAYING MOTIVATED
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. Write
the date, the exercises performed, the resistance
used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record your weight and key body
measurements once a month. To achieve good results,
make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
life.
