5. Betjeningsvejledning
The HMS L8355 Abdominal Bench is designed for various core and strength exercises. Always warm up before exercising and cool down afterwards.
5.1 Adjusting Height and Inclination
The bench features adjustable height and inclination settings to vary the intensity of your workout.
- Locate the adjustment pin or lever mechanism, typically found near the pivot point of the bench.
- Pull the pin or release the lever to disengage the locking mechanism.
- Adjust the bench to your desired height or angle. A steeper incline increases exercise difficulty.
- Ensure the pin fully re-engages or the lever locks securely into place before use.
5.2 Using the Abdominal Bench
For abdominal exercises, position yourself on the bench with your feet secured under the leg supports. Use your core muscles to perform crunches or sit-ups. The non-slip elements ensure stability during your workout.
