24. Make sure that all parts have been properly tightened. The use of the remaining parts will be explained in

ADJUSTMENTS, beginning on the following page.

Before using the resistance system, pull the long cable a few times to be sure that it moves smoothly over

the pulleys. If the cable does not move smoothly, find and correct the problem. IMPORTANT: If the cables

are not properly installed, they may be damaged when heavy resistance is used. See the CABLE

DIAGRAM on page 16 for proper cable routing.

ADJUSTMENTS

This section explains how to adjust the resistance system. See the EXERCISE GUIDELINES on page 17 for

important information about how to get the most benefit from your exercise program. Also, refer to the accompa-

nying exercise guide to see the correct form for each exercise.

Make sure all parts are properly tightened each time you use the resistance system. Replace worn parts immedi-

ately. The resistance system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use

solvents. The crossbows can be cleaned with a vinyl and rubber protectant, available at an automotive or depart-

meat store.

ATTACHING THE HIGH PULLEYS AND LEG LEVER

To use a high pulley, slide the hook on the High

Pulley Housing (21) onto an Eyebolt (34). Attach the

end of the Short Cable (33) without the ball to the end

of the Long Cable (80) with a Cable Clip (51). Attach

the other high pulley in the same manner.

To use the Leg Lever (not shown), attach the two

ends of the Leg Lever Cable (32) to the ends of the

Long Cable (80) with two Cable Clips (51).

Remove the high pulleys, and detach the Leg Lever

Cable (32), when not in use. Store the ends of the

Leg Lever Cable on the Hook (104) under the Bench

Rail (not shown).

ADJUSTING THE SEAT

The Seat (13) can be secured in any of five positions

on the Bench Rail (5). To move the Seat, pull the

Seat Knob (45) out as far as it will go, and slide the

Seat to the desired position. Engage the Seat Knob

into an adjustment hole in the Bench Rail.

To perform row exercises, the leg press strap must be

attached to the long cable (see ATTACHING THE

ACCESSORIES, on page 14), and the Seat Carriage

(12) must be able to roll along the Bench Rai! (5).

First, remove the Backrest (14) from the Seat

Carriage (see ADJUSTING THE BACKREST on page

15). Then, pull the Seat Knob (45) out as far as it will

go, and turn the Knob so that the pin rests at the end

of the "L"-shaped slot (see the inset drawing).

An'ACHING THE ACCESSORIES

To attach a Short Handle (49) to a high pulley, first

attach the high pulley to the resistance system (see

A'R-ACHING THE HIGH PULLEYS AND LEG LEVER

on page 13). Then, attach the Short Handle to the

Short Cable (33) with a Cable Clip (51).

The Long Handles (not shown) and the Ankle Strap

(not shown) can be attached to the Long Cable (80)

with Cable Clips (51). Attach the Leg Press Strap (not

shown) to both ends of the Long Cable, or the Lat Bar

(not shown) to the Short Cables (33), with two Cable

Clips.

ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE

To add resistance, hold a "U"-channel on the 10-

pound Center Crossbow (44) firmly and push the end

of a crossbow under it. Repeat with the other end of

the crossbow. If more resistance is needed, add one

crossbow at a time.

Note: When adding resistance, always start with the

heaviest crossbow to be used, and finish with the

lightest crossbow. When removing crossbows from

the "U"-channels, start with the lightest crossbow and

finish with the heaviest.

Note: The CrossBow by WELDER TM ADVANTAGE uses

progressive resistance. As the crossbows begin to

bend, the amount of resistance will increase gradual-

ly. As the crossbows bend further, the resistance will

increase rapidly.

Additional resistance can be added to the resistance

system. To purchase more resistance, call our

Customer Service Department toll-free at

1-800-999-3756 and asking for model number

WEMC06420 (100-Pound Power Pak) or

ADJUSTING THE BACKREST

The Backrest (14) can be used in a level position or

one of three inclined positions. To use the Backrest in a

level position, secure the Seat Carriage (12) at the hole

in the Bench Rail (5) closest to the Leg Developer (19)

(see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 13).

To use the Backrest (14) in an inclined position,

secure the Seat Frame (12) at one of the three

adjustment holes on the Upright (3) side of the Bench

Rail (5). Rest the Backrest against the Upright (3).

For row exercises and for using the Leg Lever (7),

remove the Backrest (14) from the Seat Carriage

(12). Hold the Backrest vertically over the Seat (13)

and lift the rod out of the slot in the Seat Carriage

(see the inset drawing). To use the Leg Lever (7),

secure the Seat Carriage (12) at the second hole

from the Leg Developer.

STORING THE RESISTANCE SYSTEM

To store the resistance system, slide the ends of the

Leg Lever Cable (32) onto the Hook (104). Be sure

the Seat (13) is in the position closest to the Front

Leg (6) (see ADJUSTING THE SEAT on page 13).

Next, remove the Storage Knob (30) from the Upright

(3). Lift the Front Leg toward the Lat Tower Crossbar

(10), and tighten the Storage Knob into the side of

the Upright and the Bench Rail. Remove all of the

crossbows from the "U"-channels on the 10-pound

Center Crossbow (44) (see ADJUSTING THE

RESISTANCE on page 14). Finally, loosen the

Fulcrum Knob (43) and pull it out as far as it will go.

Turn the crossbow assembly vertically and engage

the Fulcrum Knob into the fulcrum on the Lat Tower

(4). Note: Storing the crossbows vertically will

prolong the life of the crossbows.

To move the resistance system, place the toe of your

shoe on the end of the Base (1) and hold the resist-

ance system in the indicated area. Tilt the resistance

system back onto the Wheels (31) and roll it to the

new location. Be careful not to let the Front Leg (6)

or Leg Lever (7) pinch your hands when you tilt

the system back.

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 mus-

cles will continually adapt and grow as you progres-

sively 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 per-

formed. (A "repetition" is one complete cycle of an

exercise, such as one sit-up. A "set" is a series of

repetitions.)

The proper amount of resistance for each exercise

depends upon the individual user. You must gauge

your limits and select the amount of resistance 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 repetitions

without difficulty, increase the amount of resistance.

Toning

You can tone your muscles by pushing them to a mod-

erate percentage of their capacity. Select a moderate

amount of resistance and increase the number of rep-

etitions 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 com-

pleting more sets rather than by using high amounts of

resistance.

Weight Loss

To lose weight, use a low amount of resistance and

increase the number of repetitions in each set.

Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes, resting for a maximum

of 30 seconds between sets.

Cross Training

Cross training is an efficient way to get a complete and

well-balanced fitness program. An example of a bal-

anced program is:

• Plan strength training workouts on Monday,

Wednesday, and Friday.

• Plan 20 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as

running on a treadmill or riding on an elliptical or

exercise bike, on Tuesday and Thursday.

• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise

for at least one furl day each week to give your body

time to regenerate.

The combination of strength training and aerobic exer-

cise will reshape and strengthen your body, plus devel-

op your heart and lungs.

PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM

Determining the exact length of time for each workout,

as well as the number of repetitions or sets completed,

is an individual matter. It is important to avoid overdo-

ing it during the first few months of your exercise pro-

gram. You should progress at your own pace and be

sensitive to your body's signals. If you experience pain

or dizziness at any time while exercising, stop immedi-

ately 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 pro-

gram.

WARMING UP

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,

emphasizing areas that you want to develop most. To

give balance and variety to your workouts, vary the

exercises from session to session.

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.

EXERCISE FORM

Maintaining proper form is an essential part of an

effective exercise program. 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 guide accompany-

ing this manual you will find photographs showing the

correct form for several exercises, and a list of the

muscles affected. Refer to the muscle chart on page

18 to find the names of the muscles.

The repetitions in each set should be performed

smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stage of

each repetition shourd 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 bre'ath.

Rest for a short period of time after each set. The

ideal resting periods are:

• Rest for three minutes after each set for a muscle

building workout.

• Rest for one minute after each set for a toning work-

out.

• Rest for 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.

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

each stretch gradually and go only as far as you can

without strain. Stretching at the end of each workout

is an effective way to increase flexibility.

STAYING MOTIVATED

For motivation, keep a record of each workout. The

chart on page 19 of this manual can be photocopied

and used to schedule and record your workouts. List

the date, the exercises performed, the resistance

used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions com-

pleted. Record your weight and key body measure-

ments at the end of every month. Remember, the key

to achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a

regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
