ADJUSTMENT This section explains how to adjust the weight bench. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 22 for important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompanying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise. Make sure all parts are properly tightened 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.
ATTACHING THE LAT BAR To attach the Lat Bar (68) to the Lat Cable (74), attach a Cable Clip (72) to the Lat Bar and the Lat Cable. Note: For some exercises, you will need to attach the Chain (not shown) between the Lat Bar and the Lat Cable. Attach one link of the Chain to the Lat Bar with a Cable Clip, and attach another link of the Chain to the Lat Cable with the other Cable Clip. 74 72 68 Attach the Lat Bar (68) and other accessories to the Low Cable (not shown) in the same manner.
CABLE DIAGRAM The cable diagrams below show the proper routing of the Lat Cable, the Low Cable, and the Butterfly Cable. Use the diagrams to make sure that the cables, the cable traps, and the guards have been assembled correctly. If the cables have not been correctly routed, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur. The numbers show the correct route for each cable. Make sure that the cable traps do not touch or bind the cables. 3 Lat Cable (74) Length: 11 ft. 11 in.
MAINTENANCE Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the weight system. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent; do not use solvents. TIGHTENING THE CABLES Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight rack, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened. See ATTACHING WEIGHTS in the ADJUSTMENT section of this manual.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF WORKOUTS Muscle Building To increase the size and strength of your muscles, push them close to their maximum capacity. Your muscles will continually adapt and grow as you progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. You can adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise in two ways: • by changing the amount of resistance used • by changing the number of repetitions or sets performed.
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 stage. Never hold your breath. COOLING DOWN 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.
