5.3 TOTAL BODY TRAINER
The Total Body Trainer workout makes the most of the cross-trainer’s total body workout capabilities by leading the user
through a varied workout that exercises all major muscle groups.
ADVANCED CONSOLE
For an upper-body workout that works all the muscles in the arms, the console directs the user to push and pull the
handlebar arms at various times. The console will also vary the workout between the total body and the lower-body only
workouts. The lower-body only workout allows the user to rest his or her hands on the stationary handlebar. The forward
and reverse motions in a lower-body workout alternate allowing you to maximize the workout and use all leg
muscles during a single exercise session.
