Introduction
The Bowflex® Body Leanness
Program
This program is scientifically designed for maximal
fat loss over six weeks. It is important that you
practice every aspect of the plan to achieve
optimum results.
The program separates into three two-week
stages. During each stage you will exercise, control
the number and quality of calories you consume,
and drink plenty of ice-cold water.
Before starting the exercise routine you must
be familiar with your Bowflex®. You should
experiment with finding the proper amount of
resistance to use on each exercise. You should be
able to perform 8 repetitions, but not more than 12
repetitions, for each exercise. It is essential that
you learn how to perform each movement before
trying a complete circuit, because part of the
effectiveness of the training depends on minimal
rest between each exercise.
WARNING!
Before beginning this program consult your physician or healthcare
professional. Show this plan and your Bowflex® Owner’s Manual to
your physician or healthcare professional. Only he or she can determine
if this course is appropriate for your particular age and condition. If you
experience any lightheadedness, dizziness, or shortness of breath while
exercising, stop the movement and consult a physician.
Make sure you read your Bowflex
