Assembly  
Before beginning assembly, carefully read the  
following information and instructions:  
¥ For help identifying the small parts, use the PART  
IDENTIFICATION CHART in the center of the  
manual.  
Make Things Easier for Yourself!  
¥ As you assemble the weight bench, make sure all  
parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.  
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure  
that the assembly of our products can be complet-  
ed successfully by anyone. However, it is impor-  
tant to recognize that your new equipment is a  
sophisticated product with many small parts and  
consequently, the assembly process will take  
time. Most people find that by setting aside plenty  
of time, and by deciding to make the task enjoy-  
able, assembly will go smoothly.  
The following tools (not included) are required  
for assembly:  
¥ Two (2) adjustable wrenches  
¥ One (1) rubber mallet  
¥ One (1) standard screwdriver  
¥ One (1) phillips screwdriver  
¥ Assembly requires two people.  
¥ Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the  
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing  
materials until assembly is completed.  
¥ Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly  
plus soapy water.  
¥ Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless  
instructed to do otherwise.  
Assembly will be more convenient if you have the  
following tools: A socket set, a set of open-end or  
closed-end wrenches or a set of ratchet wrenches.  
1. Before assembling this product, make sure you  
understand the information in the box above.

Adjusting the Weight Bench  
This section explains how to adjust the weight bench. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 10 for impor-  
tant information on how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying  
exercise poster to see the correct form for each exercise.  
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the weight bench. Replace any worn parts immediately. The  
weight bench can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents.  
ADJUSTING THE BACKREST  
The Backrest (8) can be used in a level position, two  
inclined positions and a declined position. To adjust the  
Backrest to a level position or an inclined position, insert  
the Locking Pin (16) through one of the adjustment holes  
in the backrest adjustment bracket and through the weld-  
ed tube in the Main Frame (1).

Exercise Guidelines  
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS  
Muscle Building  
PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM  
Specifying the exact length of time for each workout,  
as well as the number of repetitions or sets for each  
exercise, is a highly individual matter. It is very impor-  
tant to avoid overdoing it during the first few months  
of your exercise program. You should progress at  
your own pace and be sensitive to your bodyÕs sig-  
nals. If you experience pain or dizziness at any time  
while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling  
down. Find out what is wrong before continuing.  
Remember that adequate rest and a proper diet are  
important factors in any exercise program.  
The only way to increase the size and strength of  
your muscles is to push them close to their maximum  
capacity. When you progressively increase the inten-  
sity of your exercise, your muscles will continually  
adapt and grow. You can tailor the individual exercise  
to the proper intensity level in two ways:  
¥ by changing the amount of weight used  
¥ by changing the number of repetitions or sets per-  
formed (A ÒrepetitionÓ is one complete cycle of an  
exercise, such as one sit-up. A ÒsetÓ is a series of  
repetitions).  
WARMING UP  
The proper amount of weight for each exercise obvi-  
ously depends upon the individual user. You must  
gauge your limits and select the amount of weight that  
is right for you. Begin with 3 sets of 8 repetitions for  
each exercise you perform. Rest for 3 minutes after  
each set. When you can complete 3 sets of 12 repeti-  
tions without difficulty, increase the amount of weight.  
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching  
and light exercise to warm up. Warming up prepares  
your body for more strenuous exercise by increasing  
circulation, raising your body temperature and deliver-  
ing more oxygen to your muscles.  
WORKING OUT  
Each workout should include 6 to 10 different exercis-  
es. Select exercises for every major muscle group  
with emphasis on the areas that you want to develop  
the most. To give balance and variety to your work-  
outs, vary the exercises from session to session.  
Toning  
You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a  
moderate percentage of their capacity. Select a mod-  
erate amount of weight and increase the number of  
repetitions in each set. Complete as many sets of 15  
to 20 repetitions as possible without discomfort. Rest  
for 1 minute after each set. Work your muscles by  
completing more sets rather than by using high  
amounts of weight.  
Schedule your workouts for the time of day when your  
energy level is the highest. Each workout should be  
followed by at least one day of rest. Once you find the  
schedule that is right for you, stick with it.  
Weight Loss  
EXERCISE FORM  
To lose weight, use a low amount of weight and  
increase the number of repetitions in each set.  
Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum  
of 30 seconds between sets.  
You will gain the greatest benefits from exercising by  
maintaining proper form. This requires moving  
through the full range of motion for each exercise and  
moving only the appropriate parts of the body.  
Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will leave you  
feeling exhausted. On the exercise poster accompa-  
nying this manual, you will find photographs showing  
the correct form for several exercises. A description of  
each exercise is also provided, along with a list of the  
muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart below to  
find the locations of the muscles.  
Cross Training  
Many people desire a complete and well-balanced fit-  
ness program, and cross training is a very efficient  
way to accomplish this. One example of a balanced  
program is:  
¥ Plan weight training workouts on Monday,  
Wednesday and Friday.  
The repetitions in each set should be performed  
smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of  
each repetition should last about half as long as the  
return stage. Proper breathing is important. Exhale  
during the exertion stage of each repetition and inhale  
during the return stroke. Never hold your breath!  
¥ Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as  
cycling, running or swimming on Tuesday and  
Thursday.  
¥ Rest from both weight training and aerobic exercise  
for at least one full day each week to give your body  
time to regenerate.  
The combination of weight training and aerobic exer-  
cise will reshape and strengthen your body plus  
develop your heart and lungs.  
10  
 
You should rest for a short period of time after each  
set. The ideal resting periods are:  
¥ Rest three minutes after each set for a muscle build-  
ing workout  
each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can  
without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout  
is very effective for increasing flexibility.  
¥ Rest one minute after each set for a toning workout  
¥ Rest 30 seconds after each set for a weight loss  
workout  
Plan to spend the first couple of weeks familiarizing  
yourself with the equipment and learning the proper  
form for each exercise.  
STAYING MOTIVATED  
For motivation, keep a record of each workout. List  
the date, the exercises performed, the weight plus the  
numbers of sets and repetitions completed. Record  
your weight and key body measurements at the end  
of every month.  
COOLING DOWN  
Remember, the key to achieving the greatest results  
is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of  
your everyday life.  
End each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.  
Include stretches for both your arms and legs. Move  
slowly as you stretch and do not bounce. Ease into
