General Weight Training Principles

1. Position your body in a straightly aligned manner. Avoid twisting or shifting your weight during the movement.

2. Maintain a loose, comfortable grip. Never squeeze the handgrips tightly as this results in elevated blood pressure.

3. Use as much of your range of motion as possible on each machine to develop full-range strength and flexibility.

4. Breathe normally. Try not to hold your breath while training.

5. Perform each exercise for this class for 20 repetitions:

1. Begin with a weight you can comfortably do 8 times.

2. Stay with that weight until you can perform 20 repetitions.

6. Follow the routine as the exercises are numbered on your workout sheet.

_____________________________________________________________________

Reminders:

1. Do not operate without proper instruction

2. Keep hands and feet away from weights and other moving parts while machine is in use. Keep sure hands and feel are located only on the hand grips and footpads.

3. Failure to comply with these instructions may result in personal injury.
