WARNING DECAL PLACEMENT

This drawing shows the location(s) of the warning

decal(s). If a decal is missing or illegible, call

the telephone number on the front cover of

this manual and request a free replacement

decal. Apply the decal in the location shown.

Note: The decal(s) may not be shown at actual

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and

instructions in this manual and all warnings on your weight bench before using your weight bench.

ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the

use of this product.

1. Before beginning any exercise program,

consult your physician. This is especially

important for persons over the age of 35 or

persons with pre-existing health problems.

2. Use the weight bench only as described in

this manual.

3. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the weight bench are ade-

quately informed of all precautions.

4. The weight bench is intended for home use

only. Do not use the weight bench in any

commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

5. Keep the weight bench indoors, away from

moisture and dust. Place the weight bench

on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to

protect the floor or carpet. Make sure that

there is enough clearance around the weight

bench to mount, dismount, and use the

weight bench.

6. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regular-

ly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

7. Keep children under age 12 and pets away

from the weight bench at all times.

8. Keep hands and feet away from moving

parts.

9. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-

tion while exercising.

10. The weight bench is designed to support a

maximum user weight of 300 lbs. (136 kg)

and a maximum total weight of 410 lbs. (186

kg). Do not place more than 110 lbs. (50 kg),

including a barbell and weights, on the

weight rests. Do not place more than 110 lbs.

(50 kg) on the weight carriage. Do not place

more than 50 lbs. (23 kg) on the leg lever.

11. Do not use a barbell that is longer than five

ft. (1.5 m) with the weight bench.

12. Always make sure there is an equal amount

of weight on each side of the barbell when

you are using it. When adding or removing

weights, always keep some weight on both

ends of the barbell to prevent the barbell

from tipping.

13. When you are using the leg lever, place a

barbell with the same amount of weight on

the weight rests to balance the bench.

14. When using the backrest in an inclined or

level position, make sure that the backrest

support is inserted completely through the

uprights and turned to the locked position.

15. Always remove the curl post and the lat

tower from the front leg before using the leg

lever.

16. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while

exercising, stop immediately and begin cool-

ing down.

17. Always exercise with a partner. Your partner

should stand behind you to catch the barbell

if you cannot complete a repetition.

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

progressively increase the intensity of your exercise.

You can adjust the intensity level of an individual exer-

cise 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 follows:

• 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 exer-

ciser or exercise cycle, on Tuesday and Thursday.

• Rest from both strength training and aerobic exercise

for at least one full 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

develop your heart and lungs.

PERSONALIZING YOUR EXERCISE PROGRAM

Determining the appropriate length of time for each

workout, and the numbers of repetitions and sets to

complete, is an individual matter. Avoid overdoing it

during the first few months of your exercise program.

Progress at your own pace and be sensitive to your

bodyʼs signals. If you experience pain or dizziness

while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.

Find out what is wrong before continuing. Remember

that adequate rest and a proper diet are important fac-

tors in any exercise program.

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 workout to workout.

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 way will leave you feel-

ing exhausted. On the exercise guide accompanying

this manual you will find photographs showing the cor-

rect form for several exercises, and a list of the

muscles affected. See the muscle chart on the next

page to find the names of the muscles.

MUSCLE CHART

A. Sternomastoid (neck)

B. Pectoralis Major (chest)

C. Biceps (front of arm)

D. Obliques (waist)

E. Brachioradials (forearm)

F. Hip Flexors (upper thigh)

G. Abductor (outer thigh)

H. Quadriceps (front of thigh)

I. Sartorius (front of thigh)

J. Tibialis Anterior (front of calf)

K. Soleus (front of calf)

L. Anterior Deltoid (shoulder)

M. Rectus Abdominus (stomach)

N. Adductor (inner thigh)

O. Trapezius (upper back)

P. Rhomboideus (upper back)

Q. Posterior Deltoid (shoulder)

R. Triceps (back of arm)

S. Latissimus Dorsi (mid back)

T. Spinae Erectors (lower back)

U. Gluteus Medius (hip)

V. Gluteus Maximus (buttocks)

W. Hamstring (back of leg)

X. Gastrocnemius (back of calf)

The repetitions in each set should be performed

smoothly and without pausing. The exertion stroke of

each repetition should last about half as long as the

return stroke. Proper breathing is important. Exhale

during the exertion stroke of each repetition and

inhale during the return stroke. Never hold your

breath.

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

ideal resting periods follow:

• 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.

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. 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. Write

the date, the exercises performed, the resistance

used, and the numbers of sets and repetitions com-

pleted. Record your weight and key body

measurements at the end of every month. The key to

achieving the greatest results is to make exercise a

regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
