Congratulations on purchasing your new 

Total Gym

®

1500.

With this product in your home, you have everything you need
to start your own workout program, to tone and strengthen the
important muscle groups of your upper and lower body. This is
vital for all of us, regardless of age, sex, or fitness level, and
regardless of whether your primary goal is body sculpting,
weight control, health maintenance, or more energy for daily
activities. 

Strength training not only tones and conditions the muscles we
use every day to stand, walk, lift, and turn; it can actually trans-
form our body composition. By reducing body fat and increasing
the proportion of lean muscle in our bodies, strength training can
effectively turn up our metabolic thermostat, so that we burn
calories all the time, no matter what we’re doing.

It’s easy—all you have to do is spend 15 to 20 minutes a day, 
3 to 4 days per week on your Total Gym 1500 to start realizing
the benefits.

Be sure to read through this Owner’s Manual carefully. 
It is the authoritative source of information about your 
Total Gym 1500 .
