Resumen del manual
Lay the exercise mat on the floor with the wide end near the headrest. 4 1 11 15 2 How to Use the AB RESISTER Suggested Stretches Suggested Stretches The AB RESISTER offers a variety of exercises that shape your upper abdominals, oblique abdominals, and lower abdominals. Upper Abdominals Oblique Abdominals Lower Abdominals The photographs in this manual show the correct form for each exercise. The exercises in this manual are divided into four groups: Beginning, Intermediate, Advanced, and Expert. Start with the beginning exercises, and progress at your own pace. Be careful not to overdo it during the first few weeks of your exercise program. It is better to increase the number of repetitions you do than to advance to more difficult exercises too quickly. The intensity of each exercise can be varied by changing the position of the springs (see ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE on page 7), or by changing the position of your hands on the handle. The lower your hands are positioned, the more difficult the exercise will be. To get the most from your exercise, proper form is important. As you perform each repetition, use your abdominal muscles to pull yourself up, allowing the AB RESISTER to roll with you. Keep your head on the headrest and the small of your back on the exercise mat. If necessary, raise your hips slightly. Always begin and end each workout with a few minutes of stretching. Remember to keep plenty of water nearby as you exercise and drink periodically to avoid dehydration. If you feel faint, dizzy, or short of breath at any time while exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down. WARNING: Before you begin this or any exer cise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
