INSTRUCTIONS FOR USEINSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
ADJUSTING RESISTANCE BANDS
If you nd you need to adjust the length of your
resistance band, take Part A in one hand and
start to thread through the band from underneath.
This should create a small loop at point B. Pull
point D away from Part A (whilst keeping hold
of Part A) so that the loop disappears. This will
shorten the length of the resistance band overall.
To lengthen your resistance band, thread a small
amount of band through Part A as before to
create a loop at point B. Then pull the band at
point C so that the handle moves towards Part
A. This should increase the loop and now you
will need to thread the loop through Part A so it
disappears.
When not in use please ensure resistance bands
are stored away safely so they are not a potential
trip hazard.
RESISTANCE BANDS
To use the resistance bands as part of your workout rst of all attach the resistance bands to
your Vibrapower Slim 2. To do this take the loop at the end of the resistance band and thread this
through the xed hoop located on the underside of the Vibrapower Slim 2. There are two xed
hoops; one located on each side underneath the Vibrapower Slim 2 next to the handle. Once you
have pulled the loop through the xed hoop, take the handle of the resistance band and slide
this through the loop, so that it creates a knot around the xed hoop. This should ensure that
resistance band is rmly locked into place and will not detach when in use. Please check the knot
is secure before you use the Vibrapower Slim 2 and always check that the xed hoop and the
resistance band are securely attached before each use. Regularly check the resistance bands for
any signs of wear and do not use if they appear frayed or damaged.

WORKOUT TECHNIQUES
GENERAL Once you have chosen your exercise routine, we recommend repeating it 3 times a
day at 10 minutes per session. For each session it is preferable to do 3 x 3 minutes and to rest for
a time equivalent to the workout. For example, after a 3 minute workout, rest for 3 minutes before
beginning to exercise again.
When you are ready to progress, we recommend increasing the intensity of the vibration, rather
than the duration of your workout.
We recommend doing no more than 10 minutes of exercise three times a day on your Vibrapower Slim 2
PLEASE NOTE: not all vibration trainers work in the same way. The timings relate to the
Vibrapower Slim 2 only.
Note: Vibrapower Slim 2 is a vibrating tness appliance; the more you increase the intensity, the
louder the noise caused by the vibrations will be.
SETTINGS AND USE
Turn the machine on by ensuring the supplied power cord is plugged in to the machine rst, then
plugged in to a suitable power socket and turning the power switch on the rear of the machine to
the “I” position ensuring the switch illuminates. The display will show dashes across the board.
Then press the power button on either the display unit or remote control.
The calories display will show “000”, the program display will show “88” (indicates manual mode),
speed display will read “00”, time display will read “010”.
When in use the time display will show minutes left in the exercise, this will occur until time has elapsed.
The machine can be used in various modes, described over the page.
Until you are used to vibration training technology, we suggest you start on the slowest speed and
“test” the unit’s effects for a few seconds by gently stepping onto the machine one foot at a time.

IMPORTANT - WARMING UP AND COOLING DOWNIMPORTANT - WARMING UP AND COOLING DOWN
One of the most important parts of your workout is to prepare your body for exercise on
the VibrapowerTM Slim 2.
WARMING UP
Warming up the muscles substantially
decreases the chances of injury and only takes
a few moments to do. It is recommended to
perform so light cardiovascular exercise to
warm your muscles and encourage blood ow.
COOLING DOWN
Cooling down removes the lactic acid build-up
in the muscles by oxygenating the muscles
after your exercise routine. Lactic acid is what
makes you ache after a workout, cooling down
should be undertaken soon after the last set of
exercises you intend to complete.
Warming up and cooling down exercises are identical and easy to remember. Both warming up
and cooling down should be done slowly and accurately, there is no hurry to complete these
exercises, it is more important to complete them. In addition, it is good practise to move around
after the cool down exercises to further dissipate the lactic acid.
In addition, if you are tiring between your sets,
you can use one or more of the following routines
to keep your body warm whilst you are recovering.
TOP TIP
Use a chair or a
wall to help keep
your balance if
you need to.
QUADRICEPS STRETCH
Stand close to a wall, chair or other solid
object. Use one hand to assist your balance.
Bend the opposite knee and lift your heel
towards your buttocks. Reach back and grasp
the top of your foot with the same side hand.
Keeping your inner thighs close together,
slowly pull your foot towards your buttocks until
you feel a gentle stretch in the front of your
thigh. You do not have to touch your buttocks
with your heel. Stop pulling when you feel the
stretch. Keep your kneecap pointing straight
down and keep your knees close together. (Do
not let the lifted knee swing outward).
Hold the stretch for 20 to 30 seconds.
Repeat the exercise for the other leg.
CALF AND ACHILLES STRETCH
Stand approximately one arm’s length away
from a wall or chair with your feet hip-width
apart. Keeping your toes pointed forward,
move one leg in close to the chair while
extending the other leg behind you. Bending
the leg closest to the chair and keeping the
other leg straight, place your hands on the
chair. Keep the heel of the back leg on the
ground and move your hips forward. Slowly
lean forward from the ankle, keeping your back
leg straight until you feel a stretch in your calf
muscles. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat
the exercise for the opposite leg.
INNER THIGH STRETCH
Sit on the oor and bend your legs so that
the soles of your feet are together. Place your
hands on your ankles. Lean forward from the
waist and press down lightly on the inside of
your knees. You should feel a stretch in the
muscles of your inner thighs.

OWNERS MANUAL OWNERS MANUAL
IMPORTANT - WARMING UP AND COOLING DOWN IMPORTANT - WARMING UP AND COOLING DOWN
BUTTOCKS, HIPS AND
ABDOMINAL STRETCH
Lay at on your back with your hips relaxed
against the oor. Bend one leg at the knee.
Keeping both shoulders at on the oor, gently
grasp the bent knee with your hands and pull
it over your body and towards the ground. You
should feel a stretch in your hips, abdominal
and lower back. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds and
release. Repeat the exercise for the opposite side.
STANDING HAMSTRINGS STRETCH
Stand with your legs hip width apart. Extend
one leg out in front of you and keep that foot
at against the ground. With your hands resting
lightly on your thighs, bend your back leg and
lean forward slightly from your hips until you
feel a stretch in the back of your thigh. Be sure
to lean forward from the hip joint rather than
bending at your waist. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds.
Repeat the exercise for the opposite leg.
OVERHEAD / TRICEPS STRETCH
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and
your knees slightly bent. Lift one arm overhead
and bend your elbow, reaching down behind
your head with your hand toward the opposite
shoulder blade. Walk your ngertips down
your back as far as you can. Hold this position.
Reach up with your opposite hand and grasp
your exed elbow. Gently assist the stretch by
pulling on the elbow. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds.
Repeat the exercise for the opposite arm.
Warming up and cooling down should take around ten minutes each. It is sensible to adjust this timing
according to your own situation. You would benet from a longer warm-up session if you exercise soon
after waking up than you would after a walk to the shops and back for example.
Take your time warming up and cooling down, enjoy the stretches as they will make you feel better.
TOP TIP
As you progress, you
can create your own
warm up and cool down
exercise routine, you do
not need to keep strictly
to the above routine so
long as you utilise all
the basic muscle types
included above.

ABDOMINAL TWIST
Stand on the Vibrapower Slim with your feet
shoulder width apart and hands on your hips.
Rotate your torso clockwise and hold for a few
seconds before returning to the centre.
Then repeat on the other side. This exercise
can also be done using the resistance bands
by holding them out in front of you at shoulder
height and rotating. This will work your
abdominal and oblique muscles.
LUNGE
Step on the Vibrapower Slim with one foot on
the middle of the platform and the other on the
oor behind. Bend your knee about 90°.
Keep your back straight, your knees not
extending beyond toes and position your
bodyweight on the front leg. You should
then feel muscle tension in the hamstrings,
quadriceps and buttocks.
This exercise can be used in conjunction with
other exercises such as bicep curls using the
resistance bands to enhance
the workout.
PUSH UP
Position yourself in front of the Vibrapower
Slim; place your hands on the platform, slightly
pointing inwards, shoulder width apart and legs
outstretched behind you so you are on your
toes. Keeping your back straight and abdominal
muscles tight, push your chest up from the
platform. This exercise aims to strengthen your
chest, shoulder muscles and triceps. If this
exercise is too challenging you can perform this
on your knees.
SIDE PLANK
Resting your forearm on to the Vibrapower
Slim, outstretch your legs and lift your hips
up so all your body weight is being supported
through your forearm. Hold this position for
a short period of time and then repeat on the
other side. This will work your core and oblique
muscles. This exercise can also be performed
by resting your hand on the plate rather than
your forearm if you want to increase the
intensity of the exercise.
