PROGAMME DETAILS
Your
SLENDERTONE ABS7
has 10 toning programmes, which are listed in the table
below. There are 7 Passive Programmes (no physical activity required) and 3
Active Programmes (while doing a physical activity). The screen displays the
selected programme. You cannot change a programme during a session. You
must first switch your controller off and then on again. Then you can select a
different programme by pressing the programme button.
1. Passive Programmes: without any physical activity
Programme 1 is set when you switch your controller on for the first time. The
controller will then automatically progress through each programme up to
programme. The other programmes must be selected manually using the
programme button.
Programme 7 delivers a strong abdominal workout, which is useful for those
involved in sport.
You can use the passive programmes at home (reading, watching television,
cooking, etc.) or even at work. It is a clever way of toning your abs without
interrupting your busy life!
Programme 8 is lower in intensity and is useful when you want to combine the
stimulation with a moderate cardio activity such as active walking, jogging or
using a stepper or exercise bike.
CRUNCH PROGRAMMES 9 and 10:
What shall I do?
Note: Those unfamiliar with Ab Crunch exercises should start with programme
9 before progressing to programme 10. Begin both Crunch Programmes 9 and
10 in the starting position (Fig. a, page 9).
Put on your belt and lie on your back. Bend your knees to approximately 90°.
Position your hands either side of your head. Your feet should be flat on the
floor, shoulder width apart and your abdominal muscles fully relaxed. Switch
your controller on and increase the intensity.
