Welcome to the Easy Shaper™ “Bun and Ab Lift Workout”. This workout has been
designed to promote flexibility and strength, as well as tightening and toning your
legs, thighs, buttocks and abs.
With a regular workout regimen of just 3 - 4 times per week on the Easy Shaper, you
could soon start to see more slender and defined legs and a more rounded, shapelier
and lifted derriere. You just have to take the step of getting started and making a
commitment to stick to it. It’s a fun and motivating workout. Fun, because it’s a unique,
easy lifting motion that zeros in on problem areas like the buttocks, thighs and
abdominal region. Motivating, because you can actually feel the tightening and toning
with each and every exercise. There is no other workout like this. So, let’s get started
and together we will work on a more shapelier you!
Sincerely,
– I

A Total Fitness Program is more than exercise and more than eating right. It is a “fitness
for life” plan that goes hand in hand with an overall healthy lifestyle. This includes
regular check-ups and exercise, now and for the rest of your life.
Your total fitness program consists of three parts:
• Aerobic exercise to burn calories.
• Strength conditioning exercises to tone and shape your muscles,
increase your metabolic rate, and strengthen your bones.
• A diet that is safe, sensible and healthy.
Today, all fitness research recommends both aerobic exercise and strength conditioning
to achieve balanced fitness. By improving your aerobic fitness you will strengthen
your heart and lungs, increase your stamina and endurance, and help with weight
loss. Strength conditioning adds lean muscle to your body, increasing your body’s
metabolism. In this process, your body burns more calories, even while you rest. When
you combine aerobic workouts with strength conditioning you can burn more fat and
calories than with just aerobic exercise alone.
The Easy Shaper workout will help with the strength conditioning part of your Total
Fitness Program, but you need to make aerobic exercise and healthy, low-fat eating a
big priority as well. Refer to your Exercise and Nutrition Guide.
Consult with your physician
about an eating plan that’s right for you. Healthy
eating habits and exercise will help you reach your goal. We recommend that you
follow dietary guidelines approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. These guidelines are contained in
the Food Guide Pyramid.
