General Exercise Information
Intended Use
The intended commercial use of this machine is to aid exercise and improve general physical fitness.
Prior to Exercise
Prior to starting a training program, get a complete physical exam to make sure your physician agrees that you are
ready. Always warm-up your muscles before a workout. A cardio warm-up followed by stretching is typically
recommended.
Start Your Program Conservatively
Choose weights you can easily lift in the first several weeks. Typically, a full range of motion is recommended, but
consult a qualified professional if you have questions about whether a full range of motion is appropriate for you due
to existing limitations, injury or discomfort. Injuries to health may result from incorrect or excessive training.
A “repetition” (rep) is defined as one complete movement through an exercise, returning to the start position. A “set” is
a continuous series of reps, usually between 6-15. During your workout the number of reps you perform in a set
depends on your goal. To build muscle and strength, often fewer reps (6 - 8) with heavier weight is recommended in
each set. To build endurance, more reps (12-15) with lighter weight is typically recommended.
At the end of your workout, cool down in a similar way to your warm-up.
