Every Activ5 exercise is customized to your unique strength level.

TO PERSONALIZE EACH EXERCISE, YOU WILL NEED TO SET YOUR MAX POWER BEFORE STARTING EACH EXERCISE.

The Activ5 app will prompt you to set your MAX POWER as you start exercises and workouts.

During this step, the Activ5 app will ask you to adopt the correct exercise pose and apply maximum pressure to the Activ5 device. You will see your MAX POWER reading in the Activ5 App.

NOTE: To track your increase of strength over time, we recommend resetting your MAX POWER every 7-10 days.

After you've selected an exercise in the app, be sure to set your MAX POWER for that exercise. To do so, adopt the correct pose and apply maximum pressure to the Activ5 device until the 5-second timer runs out.

By customizing your MAX POWER Activ5 ensures that each exercise is challenging, but achievable, helping you to get fitter, faster.

The way you interact with the Activ5 App is through a marker, which represents the amount of pressure applied to your Activ5 device.

In the Activ5 App, the marker will be a dot or a skier. In Activ5 Games, available for separate download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, the marker will vary. The pressure you apply on the Activ5 device controls your marker.

MORE PRESSURE MAKES THE DOT GO HIGHER, LESS PRESSURE MAKES THE DOT GO LOWER.

MORE PRESSURE MAKES THE SKIER GO RIGHT, LESS PRESSURE MAKES THE SKIER GO LEFT.

The Activ5 App coaches you by creating curves for each exercise, based on your MAX POWER. We call this version of isometric exercise "Variobics ".

By applying more or less pressure to the Activ5 device you can keep your marker on the exercise curve.

If MAX POWER isn't set for each exercise, the exercise will not be customized to your strength level and may be too easy or too di�cult.

ISOMETRICS

Activbody™ isometrics are fast, fun workouts that make you stronger and toned, enabling you to burn calories faster and keep active throughout the day. Isometric exercise has been practiced for over 5,000 years and is the muscle strengthening foundation of bothyoga and Pilates. In isometrics you tense your muscles against a static object (such as the floor) or against othermuscles, so your joints are static while multiple muscle groups are fully engaged. Because Activ5 isometric exercises are discrete and static,you can perform them at your desk, while watching TV, oron a plane, making exercise available to you anytime, anywhere.

Learn ways to incorporate Activ5 into your daily routine by following Activbody social media and reading our blog at www.activbody.com

ACTIV5 CHALLENGE

The Activ5 Challenge™ is a specially designed, six-week program that coaches users through three, 5-minute workouts per day. Using the science of isometrics and optimizing each workout to your personal strength, Activ5 will coach you through a transformational workout that will help you gain strength, build muscle and lose weight. As nutrition is an essential part of any fitness program, follow the Activbody Nutritional Guidelines to get the most out of the Activ5 Challenge. It’s particularly import-ant to eat a protein rich diet to help your body repair and build muscles. NOTE: The Activ5 Challenge includes some of our Advanced exercises, so we recommend consulting your physician before you start the program. If you are new to isometrics, consider working out with Activ5 once or twice a day for a few weeks before starting the Activ5 Challenge.
