The Performance Trainer is designed for a functional training workout. The following are just samples of the basic core,

EXERCISES
LOWER BODY
UPPER BODY
CORE
1. Warm up:
Proper warm up before you begin your workout helps to get your muscles ready for exercise and can help
prevent serious injury.
2. Control resistance:
Always work with resistance that you can handle through a full range of motion. Know your limitations.
3. Breathe:
Keep your breathing at a constant but steady pace. Avoid holding your breath as this may cause physical harm.
4. Keep your form and control:
Learn and know how to perform the exercise correctly. Keep a steady/fluid motion
throughout your workout. Engaging your abdominal muscles will help keep balance and protect your spine.
EXERCISE GUIDELINE
CAUTION: PROPER WARM UP REQUIRED TO HELP PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY. This Performance Trainer
should only be used with proper instruction. Always maintain good form and control during exercise. If you feel pain
or are unable to maintain good form, stop immediately. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious
injury. If you are unclear on proper form, consult a physical therapist or trainer.
CAUTION: NEVER MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE RESISTANCE DURING EXERCISE AS THIS MAY CAUSE
MUSCLE STRAIN.
Always return the Handle/Cable to the start position prior to making any adjustments to help
prevent serious injury. Refer to the “Training Space” section (page 6) for Cable length safety information.
Consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
