Thank you for purchasing the Precor StretchTrainer™. You have made an excellent choice in reducing your daily stress, enhancing muscle elasticity and flexibility, diminishing the risk of injury, and increasing body awareness and relaxation. The StretchTrainer puts the emphasis on flexibility, and like all Precor products, it is manufactured to the highest quality standards.
The StretchTrainer makes it easy to incorporate stretching into your daily routine. There is no getting up and down off the floor or dealing with awkward balancing rituals. The StretchTrainer uses alignment, traction, and precisely engineered angles to place your body in its most advantageous position for stretching and flexibility training. The patented StretchTrainer design locks in your legs and pelvis as the seat pivots back. This stabilizes your back so that the weight of your body helps achieve an optimal stretch. No other stretching device puts your body in such an ideal position.
