for you, hold your arms straight out to your

sides at shoulder height. Bend your elbows

approximately 90°. Hands should be no

wider apart than your elbows (beginners

may narrow their grip to increase comfort).

• Keep your spine aligned, abs tight and a

slight arch in your lower back.

Press Seat Back to the sliding seat, facing

away from the engine. (Refer to instructions

for attaching the Leg Press Seat Back

far end of the seat rail. After grasping the

Hand Grips, sit on the seat, facing the engine.

Lean forward at the hip, and use the seat

back for added stability.
