HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS

As you exercise on the treadmill, you can hold either the handrails or the upper body arms. The upper body arms are designed to exercise your arms, shoulders, and back for a total body workout. Hold one upper body arm with each hand, and move them forward and back as you walk on the treadmill.

To vary the intensity of your upper body exercise, the resis- tance of the upper body arms can be adjusted. To increase the resistance, turn the resistance knobs clockwise; to de- crease the resistance, turn the knobs counterclockwise.
