Introduction
The Bowflex Body Leanness
Program
This program is scientifically designed for
maximal fat loss over six weeks. It is important
that you practice every aspect of the plan to
achieve optimum results.
The program separates into three two-week
stages. During each stage you will exercise,
control the number and quality of calories you
consume, and drink plenty of ice-cold water.
Before starting the exercise routine you must be
familiar with your Bowflex. You should
experiment with finding the proper amount of
resistance to use on each exercise. You should be
able to perform 8 repetitions, but not more than
12 repetitions, for each exercise. It is essential
that you learn how to perform each movement
before trying a complete circuit, because part of
the effectiveness of the training depends on
minimal rest between each exercise.
Warning! Before beginning this
program consult you physician
or health-care professional.
Show this plan and your
Bowflex Owner’s Manual to
your physician or health-care
professional. Only he or she can
determine if this course is
appropriate for your particular
age and condition. If you
experience any lightheadedness,
dizziness, or shortness of breath
while exercising, stop the
movement and consult a
physician.
Make sure you read your
Bowflex Owner’s Manual
before attempting a workout.
*** There are a few people who
should not try this program:
Children and teenagers; pregnant
women; women who are breast

certain types of heart, liver, or
kidney disease; and those suffering
from certain types of arthritis. This
should not be taken as an all
inclusive list. Some people should
follow the course only with their
physician’s specific guidance. Play it
safe and consult a health-care
professional.
