TOTAL GYM ® TITANIUM OWNER’S MANUAL

Congratulations on purchasing your new Total Gym

With this product in your home, you have everything you need to start your own workout program, to tone and strengthen the important muscle groups of your upper and lower body. This is vital for all of us, regardless of age, sex, or fitness level, and regardless of whether your primary goal is body sculpting, weight loss, health maintenance, or more energy for daily activities.

Strength training not only tones and conditions the muscles we use every day to stand, walk, lift, and turn; it can actually transform our body composition. By reducing body fat and increasing the proportion of lean muscle in our bodies, strength training can effectively turn up our metabolic thermostat, so that we burn calories all the time, no matter what we’re doing.

It’s easy - all you have to do is spend 15 to 20 minutes a day, 3 to 4 days per week on your Total Gym

to start realizing the benefits.

Be sure to read through this Owner’s Manual carefully. It is the authoritative source of information about your Total Gym

Set Up

Your product comes with:

• Safety Hitch C Pin to be inserted into side hole directly below Height Adjustment Assembly on the vertical column after set up.

• Height Adjustment Quick Release Pin located on side of Vertical Column for raising and lowering rails.

• One (1) Spring Loaded Pin locked into the base of the Left Rail by the Height Adjustment Tube. Left side is determined by standing behind the unit facing the Vertical Column.

IMPORTANT: To prevent injury, be sure the Spring Loaded Pin is locked securely into place in the Left Rail before using unit. This will prevent the Height Adjustment Column from falling forward.

• Straight Safety Pin located on Lanyard/attached to Height Adjustment Tube.

• One (1) Long Hitch Pin for Leg Pulley Bracket is included in Miscellaneous Accessories, as well as four (4) Short Hitch Pins for the

Dip Bars, Wing Attachments and Ab Crunch Boards.

2. Lay product on the floor with glideboard side up. Make sure you have plenty of space on both ends of the product. Slide the glideboard as far as it will go towards the Front Crossbar before you begin lifting unit.

Lift the exerciser up by holding it at the top of the rails.

Using your foot, slowly spread the unit open at the bottom approximately 12 inches so that it rests firmly on the Front and

Back Crossbars not allowing it to go too far.

4. Make sure the handles are out to the sides before you begin to unfold your unit. Keep hands and fingers away from pulley. Hold onto the top center of glideboard and begin rolling rear rollers.

Spread the unit out until it is flat on the floor. Be careful to do this slowly .

Be sure to support the frame in the center to avoid having the product drop suddenly onto the floor or pinch fingers.

TOTAL GYM ® TITANIUM OWNER’S MANUAL | STARTING OUT

Starting Out

GENERAL SAFETY TIPS

• While performing exercises with quick tempo repetitions, the Total Gym

may move. Please be aware of the action and make necessary adjustments as you continue your exercise program.

• Wear athletic shoes and comfortable light clothing when exercising on the Total Gym

• Do not exercise barefoot.

• Check your exerciser before using to ensure that all the parts are in place and working properly (see pages 12 and 13 for details on

Inspection, Maintenance and Storage) .

• Adult supervision is required at all times.

• The Rails and Glideboard can be raised to any desired level on the Height Adjustment Column depending upon your degree of fitness.

Please note , however, that the Rails cannot be raised to the highest position on the Height Adjustment Column when the Leg Pulley

Bracket is attached to the column.

• Be sure you have plenty of free space - at least 2-3 feet clearance around the exerciser - so that performing on the Total Gym

, as well as getting on and off, is convenient and safe.

• Each time you raise or lower the Height Adjustment Column, be sure you hold it to keep it from dropping to the floor.

AS EASY AS 1-2-3

Begin using the product at a low incline. As your fitness level progresses, increase the incline to increase the intensity and improve your muscle strength. Don’t be in a hurry to exercise at a high intensity level; start out easily and build gradually. The Total Gym ® is as easy as

1-2-3 to use, so read on...

1. IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN USING THE TOTAL GYM ®

• Always have control of the glideboard before getting on and off the exerciser.

• Keep your feet on the floor when getting on and off the exerciser. Only remove them from the floor for the duration of the exercise.

• If you are using the handles, hold onto them as you get on and off the glideboard.

• Remove Cable from Glideboard when not using Cable Handles.

2. EXERCISING WITH THE HANDLES ONLY

Grasp the handles which are attached to the cable and slide the glideboard to a position in which you can comfortably sit or lay down when performing the desired exercise (see the Exercise Guide). Be sure to keep your feet on the floor until you are in the correct position for the specific exercise. Then, if the exercise calls for your feet to be off the floor, place your feet as specified in the instructions.

3. EXERCISING WITH THE WING ATTACHMENTS AND DIP BARS

Slide the glideboard to a position in which you can comfortably sit or lay down on when performing the desired exercise (see the

Exercise Guide). Keep your feet on the ground until you are in the correct position and feel comfortable. Then, place your feet in the proper position and begin to exercise.

When starting your exercise program, begin with the basic exercises in the Exercise Guide included with your Total Gym

to familiarize yourself with the movements. Use the lowest incline level to start with - you can work up to a higher incline level in the weeks and months to come.

For the specific Total Gym

exercises and programs, study and follow the instructions in the Exercise Guide included with your product.
