BENCH ADJUSTMENT CHART
The chart below contains a list of exercises that require the use of the safety spotter. When preparing the weight
bench for one of these exercises, follow the steps listed below. For information about each of these steps, refer
to the ADJUSTMENTS section of this manual. Make sure the bench cable is attached to the low cable when
performing any of the bench exercises.
For each exercise, determine the positions of the bench, the weight rests, and the safety spotter that are best for
you. The first time you perform each exercise, write the positions of the weight rests and the safety spotter in the
chart. Write the number corresponding to the height of the weight rests, and the letter corresponding to the
height of the safety spotter in the appropriate column. When preparing to perform the exercise again, refer back
