Important Precautions  
WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions  
before using the weight rack.  
1. Read all instructions in this manual before  
using the weight rack. Use the weight rack  
only as described in this manual.  
10. Always set both weight rests and both  
safety spotters at the same height.  
11. The weight bench is designed to support a  
maximum of 560 pounds, including the user,  
a barbell and weights (not included). Do not  
place more than 300 pounds, including the  
barbell, on the weight rests. Do not place  
more than 150 pounds on the weight car-  
riage.  
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to  
ensure that all users of the weight rack are  
adequately informed of all precautions.  
3. The weight rack is intended for home use  
only. Do not use the weight rack in any  
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.  
12. Make sure that the cables remain on the  
pulleys at all times. If the cables bind as  
you are exercising, stop immediately and  
make sure that the cables are on the pul-  
leys.  
4. Use the weight rack only on a level sur-  
face. Cover the floor beneath the weight  
rack for protection of the floor or carpet.  
5. Inspect and tighten all parts each time you  
use the weight rack. Replace any worn  
parts immediately.  
13. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-  
tion while exercising.  
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away  
from the weight rack at all times.  
14. Always exercise with a partner. When you  
are performing squat exercises, your part-  
ner should stand behind you to catch the  
barbell if you cannot complete a repetition.  
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving  
parts.  
15. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time  
while exercising, stop immediately and  
begin cooling down.  
8. Always secure the weights (not included)  
with the weight clips when they are mounted  
on the weight carriage.  
16. Always disconnect the lat bar from the  
weight rack when performing an exercise  
that does not require the lat bar.  
9. Always make sure there is an equal  
amount of weight on each end of the bar-  
bell (not included).

Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This  
is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

Assembly  
As you assemble the weight rack, make sure all  
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.  
Make Things Easier for Yourself!  
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure  
that the weight rack can be assembled success-  
fully by anyone. However, it is important to real-  
ize that the versatile weight rack has many parts  
and that the assembly process will take time.  
Most people find that by setting aside plenty of  
time, assembly will go smoothly.  
For help identifying small parts, use the PART  
IDENTIFICATION CHART on page 5.  
The following tools (not included) are required  
for assembly:  
• Two adjustable wrenches  
• One rubber mallet  
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the  
following information and instructions:  
• One standard screwdriver  
• One Phillips screwdriver  
Assembly requires two people.  
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,  
and soapy water.  
Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the  
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing  
materials until assembly is completed.  
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a  
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end  
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.  
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.

Exercise Guidelines  
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS  
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM  
Muscle Building  
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.  
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).  
WARMING UP  
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.  
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  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Cross Training  
Many people desire a complete and balanced fitness  
program. Cross training is an efficient way to accom-  
plish 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 and devel-  
op your 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!  
17

Make sure to rest for a short period of time after each  
set. The ideal resting periods are:  
without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout  
is very effective for increasing flexibility.  
• Rest three minutes after each set for a muscle build-  
ing workout.  
STAYING MOTIVATED  
• 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.  
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The  
chart on page 19 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.  
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  
Remember, the key to achieving the greatest results  
is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of  
your everyday life.
