exercise descriptions
There are many exercises that you can select for your workouts depending on the area of the body you choose to exercise, level of fitness and your personal exercise objectives. We have selected a core set of exercises to describe in this Owners Manual.
Notes: For variety you can complete your exercises in a static mode where you hold the exercise for a specific period of time like 30 seconds or you can complete it in a dynamic fashion where you complete a series of repetitions.
