Using the Weight Bench  
The weight bench is designed to be used with your own weight set (not included). The steps below explain how  
the weight bench can be adjusted. See EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 14 for important exercise information  
and refer to the accompanying exercise poster to see the correct form for each exercise. Refer also to the exer-  
cise information accompanying your weight set (not included) for additional exercises.  
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately. The  
weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.  
ADJUSTING THE BACKREST  
The Backrest (6) can be used in a level position, a  
declined position or two inclined positions. To use the  
7
Backrest in a declined position, remove the Support  
Tube (7) and lower the Backrest Tubes (5) onto the  
Crossbar (3).

19  
To change weights while your barbell (not included) is  
on the Weight Rests (19), secure your barbell with the  
Barbell Lock Pins (28, 30) by rotating them up over the  
barbell. This will reduce the possibility of the barbell tip-  
ping while you change weights.

Exercise Guidelines  
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS  
¥ Muscle Building  
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM  
We have not specified an exact length of time for  
each workout, or a specific number of repetitions or  
sets for each exercise. It is very important to avoid  
overdoing it during the first few months of your exer-  
cise program, and to progress at your own pace. If  
you experience pain or dizziness at any time while  
exercising, stop immediately and begin to cool down.  
Find out what is wrong before continuing. Remember  
that adequate rest and a proper diet are also impor-  
tant.  
In order to increase the size and strength of your  
muscles, you must push your muscles to a high per-  
centage of their capacity. You must also progressively  
increase the intensity of your exercise so that your  
muscles will continually adapt and grow. Each individ-  
ual exercise can be tailored to the proper intensity  
level by changing the amount of weight used, or the  
number of repetitions or sets performed. (A Òrepeti-  
tionÓ is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as  
one sit-up. A ÒsetÓ is a series of repetitions performed  
consecutively.)  
WARMING UP  
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of light  
stretching and exercise to warm up. Warming up pre-  
pares your body for exercise by increasing circulation,  
raising your body temperature and delivering more  
oxygen to your muscles.  
The proper amount of weight for each exercise  
depends upon the individual user. It is up to you to  
gauge your limits. Select the amount of weight that  
you think is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repeti-  
tions 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 weight.  
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 workout to workout.  
¥ Toning  
To tone your muscles, you must push your muscles to  
a moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a  
moderate 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.  
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  
¥ Weight Loss  
In order to obtain the greatest benefits from exercis-  
ing, it is essential to maintain proper form.  
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.  
Maintaining proper form means 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 accompanying this  
manual, you will find photographs showing the correct  
form for several exercises. A description of each exer-  
cise is also provided, along with a list of the muscles  
affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page 15 to find  
the locations of the muscles.  
¥ Cross Training  
In the pursuit of a complete and well-balanced fitness  
program, many have found that cross training is the  
answer. We recommend that on Monday, Wednesday  
and Friday, you plan weight training workouts. On  
Tuesday and Thursday, plan 20 to 30 minutes of aero-  
bic exercise, such as cycling, running or swimming.  
Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise  
for at least one full day each week to give your body  
time to regenerate. By combining weight training with  
aerobic exercise, you can reshape and strengthen  
your body, plus develop a stronger heart and lungs.  
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. Rest

for 3 minutes after each set if you are doing a muscle  
building workout, 1 minute after each set if you are  
doing a toning workout, and 30 seconds after each  
set if you are doing 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.  
STAYING MOTIVATED  
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The  
charts on pages 16 and 17 of this manual can be  
photocopied and used to schedule and record your  
workouts. List the date, exercises performed, weight,  
and numbers of sets and repetitions completed.  
Record your weight and key body measurements at  
the end of every month.  
COOLING DOWN  
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.  
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move  
slowly as you stretchÑdo not bounce. Ease into each  
stretch gradually and go only as far as you can with-  
out strain. Stretching at the end of each workout is  
very effective for increasing flexibility.  
Remember, the key to achieving the greatest results  
is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of  
your everyday life.
