HELLO THERE

Joel and I are athletes who suffered from severe ACL injuries a few months apart. We purchased multiple pieces of exercise equipment for our in-home rehab but were left disappointed and frustrated by all that fitness gear that made big promises but gave no support, no well-thought-out plan to follow, and no results. And that’s how Lifepro came about, and why the SoarFX active recovery collection was created—we’ve set out to change all of that. It’s why every piece of equipment bearing our name not only undergoes rigorous scrutiny to make sure it delivers on power and efficacy, but comes with built-in support from our ‘guiding angels’ and a built-in lifetime warranty so that you’re never left hanging. Welcome to Lifepro.We’re in this together now.

USING YOUR POWERFLOW DUMBBELL

TIPS FOR USING YOUR DUMBBELL

EXERCISE TIPS

• We recommend beginning with the lowest weight, 2.5 pounds.
• Increase the amount you lift slowly over a few weeks.
• Use the PowerFlow dumbbell every other day to allow your muscles sufficient time to recover from your workout.
• Always warm up before beginning a workout. It is especially important to warm up the specific muscle groups you will be working during your strength training session.
• Use proper form. Focus on only working the muscle groups intended for the exercise you are performing. If there is strain elsewhere, you may need to re-evaluate the amount of weight that is involved with the lift. Keeping proper form also includes maintaining control through the entire range of motion.
• Breathe properly. Exhale as you are lifting, inhale as you return to the starting position. Never hold your breath during any part of an exercise.
• Always wear appropriate clothing and shoes when exercising. Wearing comfortable athletic shoes with good support and loose fitting, breathable clothing will reduce the risk of injury.

SAFETY TIPS

• Before lifting a dumbbell, always ensure the weight is set to the desired weight load.
• Exercise sensibly, and do not overload, especially on your initial workouts.
• Always ensure that you use the same weight settings on both sides of the dumbbell.
• Only adjust the weight of the dumbbell when it is in the rack. Never adjust the weight while the dumbbell is in use.
• Do not force the black weight adjustment slider to move.
• Always return the weights to the lightest settings after each workout to avoid future injury.
• You may wish to place the rack and PowerFlow dumbbell on a sturdy table or shelf instead of on the ground to avoid repetitive bending.
• You may wish to wear weight lifting gloves to prevent hand chafing, blistering, and callouses.
