HOW TO OPERATE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD The temporary adapter should be used only until a
propedy grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electdcian.
The CROSSTRAINER0 like any other type of sophisti-
cated electronic equipment, can be seriously dam-
aged by sudden voltage changes in your home's
power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference
can result from weather conditions or from other appli-
ances being turned on or off. To decrease the possi-
bility of the CROSSTRAINER being damaged,
always use asurge suppressor (see drawing 1 at
the right).
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores
and department stores. Use only a single-outlet surge
suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage
surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must
have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or
less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electdcaUy rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
ti_)n or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electdc current to reduce the risk of elec-
tdc shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a propedy grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 at the dght. A temporary adapter
that looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may
be used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE
To use the treadmill, the bench must be folded to the
;torage position. See HOW TO FOLD THE BENCH

The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-
ercise program. Remember--these are general guide-
lines onty. For more information, view the included
videocassette.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to bum fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the de-
sired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using'yb_Jl:
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exer-
cise. (This chart is atso found on the console.)
HEARTRATETRAINING ZONE
• flip" "_.
,3o"1_._, I_1 f._
(40' ' _tf ,_,
(50 _, _l,
60 PI r_
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
on the left side of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers to
the rightof your age. The three numbers are your
"training zone." The lower two numbers are recom-
mended head rates for fat burning; the higher number
is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To bum fat effectively, you must exercise at a mlafively
low intensitylevel for asustained period of time. Dudng
the firstfew minutes of exercise, your body uses easily
accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes does your body begin to use
stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to bum fat,
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near one of the lower two numbers in your
training zone. It may also be helpful to set the speed
control on the console to FAT BURN to help you main-
tain the proper intensity level. (See page 10.)
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be =aerobic." Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone. It may also be helpful to set the speed control on
the console to AEROBIC to help you maintain the
proper intensity level. (See page 10.)
High Performance Athletic Conditioning
If your goal is high performance athletic conditioning,
set the speed control on the console to PERFOR-
MANCE to help you maintain the proper intensity level.
(See page 10.) Note: During the first few weeks of your
exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low
end of your training zone.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your
head rate, stop ex-
ercising and place
two fingers on
your wrist as
shown. Take a six-
second heartbeat
count, and multiply
the result by ten to
find your heart
rate. (A six-second count is used because your heart
rate drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If your
heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed or in-
cline of the treadmill accordingly.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Awell-rounded workout includes the following three
important parts:
A Warm-up
Start each workout with 5to 8 minutes of stretching
and light exercise (see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on
page 13). A proper warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity of your exer-
cise until your heart rate is in your training zone for 20
to 60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exer-
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your train-
ing zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly
and deeply as you exercise--do not hold your breath.
ACool-down
Finish each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching
to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your
muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
Exercise Frequency
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-
tween workouts. After a few months, you may com-
plete up to five workouts each week if desired.
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the
right. Move slowly as you stretch---never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward
from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you
reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3times. Stretches: Hamstrings,
back of knees, and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward _]nd place your
hands against awall. Keep your back leg straight and your
back foot fiat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and
move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the
achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches:
Calves, achilles tendons, and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against awall for balance, reach back and
grasp one toot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close
to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for both legs. Stretches: Quaddceps and hip
muscles.
Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible, Hold
for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches:
Quadriceps and hip muscles.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE WEIGHT BENCH
The CROSSTRAINER offers avadety of exercises
designed to tdm, tone, and strengthen the body.
PJease read these guidelines before using the weight
bench. For more information, view the included video-
cassette.
WARNING: Before beginning any exercise pro-
gram, consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over the age of 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
STRENGTH TRAINING GUIDELINES
Your strength training program should include 3 work-
outs each week. To give your body time to rest, work-
outs should be on alternating days, such as Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday.
Instead of waiting for a convenient time to exercise,
plan a specific time. The morning hours work well for
many, and the self-discipline required to dse eady and
exercise may result in greater productivity throughout
the day. For others, exercising before dinner offers a
chance to wind down from the day's activities. What-
ever time you choose, be consistent and stick with it.
Each workout should include the following three
essential parts: (1) a warm-up, (2) 6 to 10 exercises,
and (3) a cool-down.
/egin each workout with 5to 8 minutes of stretching to
warm up (see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on page
13). This will prepare the body for exercise by increas-
ing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the muscles,
and raising the body temperature.
Next, pedorm 6 to 10 of the exercises shown on the in-
cluded chart. To give balance and variety to your work-
outs, vary the exercises from workout to workout.
Begin with 1 set of 12 repetitions for each exercise. (A
"repetition" is one complete cycle of an exercise, such
as one sit-up. A %el" is a series of repetitions per-
formed without pausing.) As your fitness level in-
creases, perform 2 or 3 sets for each exercise. Always
rest for at least 1 minute after each set. When you can
complete 3 sets of 12 repetitions without difficulty, you
may choose to use heavier weights. CAUTION: The
CROSSTRAINER includes three pairs of hand
weights. Other hand-held weights may be used
with the CROSSTRAINER; however, do not put
other weights on the weight rack, or use weights
weighing more than 20 pounds each.
Finish each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching to
cool down. This will increase your flexibility, and will
help to reduce soreness.
It is very important to avoid overdoing it during the first
few months of your exercise program, and to progress
at your own pace. CAUTION: If you feel pain or
dizziness at any time, stop immediately and begin
cooling down.
EXERCISE FORM
For the best results, correct form is important.
Maintaining proper form means moving through the full
range of motion for each exercise, and moving only the
appropriate parts of the body. The photographs on the
included chart show the correct starting and ending po-
sitions for each exercise. Make sure to perform each
exercise with a smooth, steady motion. Exhale as you
exert yourself, and inhale as you return to the starting
position; never hold your breath,
STAYING MOTIVATED
To stay motivated, try listening to music or watching
television while you exercise. It may a!so be helpful to
work out with a training partner. If desired, use a calen-
dar to keep arecord of your workouts, and write key
body measurements at the end of every month.
Remember, the key to lasting results is to make exer-
cise a regular and enjoyable part of your daily life.
MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING

tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the
walking belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform.

walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt
centered. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and
run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the
walking belt is propedy tightened.

HOW TO MOVE THE CROSSTRAINER
Before moving the CROSSTRAINER, make sure that the bench and treadmill are folded to the storage
position, and that the lock pins are fully engaged (see HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL TO THE STOR-
AGE POSITION on page 11, and HOW TO FOLD THE BENCH TO THE STORAGE POSITION on page 14).
To move the CROSSTRAINER, first hold the handrails
and place one foot on the base as shown.
Next, tilt the CROSSTRAINER back until it rolls freely on
the front wheels. Carefully move the CROSSTRAINER to
the desired location. Place one foot on the base, and
carefully lower the CROSSTRAINER until it is resting on
the base. Never move the CROSSTRAINER without
tipping it back, or the base pads may come off. To re-
duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while
moving the CROSSTRAINER. Do not move the
CROSSTRAINER over an uneven surface.
