PERFECT TRAINER™ OWNER’S MANUAL
A. CONGRATULATIONS ON PURCHASING YOUR PERFECT TRAINERTM
The Perfect Trainer™ is a new generation, compact exercise device that will enable you to quickly and
easily re-shape your entire body, burn off excess body fat and to be trimmer, firmer and healthier. With the
Perfect Trainer™, exercises are performed from a natural, standing position, allowing for unrestricted, single
and multi-joint exercises. Working out with the Perfect Trainer™ is enjoyable, energizing and gratifying. By
committing to a regular exercise routine, in less time than you might think, you can achieve the results
you’ve always wanted.
HOW IT WORKS
Unlike conventional forms of long, drawn out exercise, when working out with the Perfect Trainer™ your
workouts are shorter. There is much science proving that shorter bursts of exercising based on the “wave”
principle can produce significantly better results in less time than conventional steady state exercises.
Alternating between repeated, short bursts of higher intensity activity, followed by periods of lower intensity
to rest and recover, stimulates what is called the “afterburn” effect, meaning you burn calories long after
your workout is over, thereby accelerating overall fat loss. In short, with the Perfect Trainer™ you can expect
to achieve maximum results in minimum time.
PERFECT TRAINERTM DESIGNED TO DELIVER MAXIMUM RESULTS
Your Perfect Trainer™ comes complete with a selection of specially designed exercise programs aimed to
re-condition your body, build muscle and cardiovascular fitness and to reclaim your health and energy
levels. These programs are based on three, result-producing principles:
 • Firstly,alternatingshortburstsofactiveexercisewithperiodsofrestandrecovery.
 • Secondly,progressivelyincreasingtheintensityofyourworkoutovertime.
 • Thirdly,creatingvarietyinyourworkoutroutinetopreventhittinga“tnessplateau”.
Before starting to exercise, it is important to carefully study this Owner’s Manual which explains,
step-by-step, all you need to know about:
 • Medicalandsafetyprecautionstobeconsideredbeforestartingtoexercise.
 • SettingupandusingyourPerfectTrainer™.
 • Exercisingsafelyandeffectively.
 • Selectingandimplementinganexerciseprogramsuitedtoyourneedsandobjectives.
Once you have a thorough grasp of the above, you can commit to making exercise an enjoyable part of
your life – a decision that can bring a lifetime of benefits – not only in the way you look and feel, but also
in restored energy, and the many health and fitness benefits that come from exercising regularly.
