00:05.057 --> 00:06.480
- Hi. I'm Tech Sgt Hills

00:06.480 --> 00:07.820
and today I'm gonna talk
to you about some of

00:07.820 --> 00:10.200
the new equipment we have here at TEC.

00:10.200 --> 00:12.046
This is a very exciting
opportunity because

00:12.046 --> 00:16.090
if you are like me, weight
training is something

00:16.090 --> 00:18.170
to really get excited
about when you're trying

00:18.170 --> 00:19.320
to make some different changes

00:19.320 --> 00:21.660
or if you just have a lifestyle balance.

00:21.660 --> 00:23.406
Anytime you get into looking at

00:23.406 --> 00:26.320
any weight training opportunity,

00:26.320 --> 00:28.540
you wanna make sure that safety is first.

00:28.540 --> 00:30.750
So with this Assisted
Dip and Pull Up Machine,

00:30.750 --> 00:31.950
that's where we're gonna start.

00:31.950 --> 00:33.600
And that machine is working your

00:33.600 --> 00:37.440
chest, triceps, and delts.

00:37.440 --> 00:39.060
So with this machine, you wanna first

00:39.060 --> 00:40.392
kinda get a feel for it.

00:40.392 --> 00:43.160
Get on the machine and see how things feel

00:43.160 --> 00:46.990
without any weight
assisted or added to it.

00:46.990 --> 00:48.250
This is gonna be your baseline.

00:48.250 --> 00:49.280
So you'll get on the machine,

00:49.280 --> 00:52.570
you'll lower your body down
with just your own weight.

00:52.570 --> 00:55.060
After that, after you get your baseline,

00:55.060 --> 00:58.370
you kinda get a feel for
what things are looking like,

00:58.370 --> 01:00.540
and what you should be
adding to the machine.

01:00.540 --> 01:01.570
Slowly lower your body down

01:01.570 --> 01:03.070
and slowly bring yourself back up

01:03.070 --> 01:05.401
until your elbows hit 90 degrees.

01:05.401 --> 01:07.700
And this is gonna give you your baseline

01:07.700 --> 01:09.220
to see what you actually can lift

01:09.220 --> 01:10.720
with just your body weight.

01:10.720 --> 01:13.086
Now, there's opportunities
for you to add plates.

01:13.086 --> 01:15.660
But keep in mind, anytime you add plates,

01:15.660 --> 01:17.837
the less resistance you are
getting from the machine.

01:17.837 --> 01:19.883
So say if you add a 50 pound plate,

01:19.883 --> 01:23.540
that's reducing the weight at 50 pounds.

01:23.540 --> 01:24.899
See how things feel,

01:24.899 --> 01:26.780
and then work your way up.

01:26.780 --> 01:28.840
The goal is gonna be at least eight.

01:28.840 --> 01:30.656
If you can get to at least eight,

01:30.656 --> 01:32.387
no particular time frame,

01:32.387 --> 01:33.530
but if you can get to at least eight,

01:33.530 --> 01:34.480
worked up to eight,

01:34.480 --> 01:38.609
then you will have made an
adjustment on this machine.

01:38.609 --> 01:42.109
(sound of weight lifting)

01:51.863 --> 01:53.870
Well, that's all I got.

01:53.870 --> 01:55.110
Sgt Hills. Stay schooled.

01:55.110 --> 01:56.153
Til next time.
