, wear athletic shoes and comfortable lightweight clothing. Tie long
hair back to avoid contact with the center pulley. Before you begin, check to ensure that all
parts are in place and working properly.
Begin your exercise program at a low incline. As your proficiency increases, raise the incline
to increase the intensity.
Remember to control the Glideboard (G) at all times, particularly when getting on or off your
PowerTower. The following tips will help you stabilize the Glideboard (G) as you approach the unit for
mounting in various positions. Use these mounting concepts when teaching patients to get on and off
the unit.
