WARNING! 5 Before beginning any exercise program con- sult your physician or health care profession- al. Only he or she can determine the exercise program that is appropriate for your particu- lar age and condition. If you experience any lightheadedness, dizziness, or shortness of breath while exercising, stop the exercise and consult your physician. For Your Safety Please Follow These Instructions Keep your body weight on the machine, bench, or standing platform while exercising. Before exercising, make sure that the seat adjustment lock is securely fastened and the bench is firmly in place. Inspect your machine before each workout. Periodically check all fasteners to make sure none have loosened with use. Tighten if necessary. When using the Bowflex® Home Gym for standing leg exercises, always grasp the Power Rod® units for stability. When hooking up Power Rod® units do not stand directly looking over the top of the rods. Stand off to the side while attaching rods. Keep out of the path of the Power Rod® units when exercising and make certain that observers also stand clear of the Bowflex® Home Gym when the Power Rod® units are in use. Never move or adjust the bench while sitting or lying on the bench. Never stand on the bench. Never attempt to exercise with more resistance than you are physically able to handle. Keep cables and Power Rod® units bound with the rod binding strap when the Bowflex® Home Gym is not in use.
