Important: If you are just beginning your exercise program with the DX•ƒ Gloves, we urge you to START SLOWLY and proceed GRADUALLY. There is a natural temptation to try to achieve maximum performance levels immediately. This temptation should be resisted. If not, your first experience may lead to excessive muscle soreness and may discourage you from developing a regular exercise routine. You will derive the greatest benefit from this program if you proceed gradually.
We suggest you begin by performing each of the listed exercises at a light to moderate exertion level. Once you are familiar with each exercise, choose five or six to form the core for your daily routine. Then periodically review this website to add additional exercises as you progress.

Sitting Ab Bend Down
Place hands on knees, contract abdominal muscles to pull torso gradually toward knees. Resist with arms. Reverse direction of movement while maintaining constant pressure.
Each rep should take 2-5 seconds.
Perform 10-20 reps.
Incline Push-Up
Using a chair, desktop, or low table (e.g., coffee table) place hands on table or chair and perform push-ups at one or two second intervals. Taller tables or chair arms may be used for a lighter workout. For a more challenging workout, place feet on table, chair or bed and hands on floor to perform push-ups.
Use tone to establish pace.
Dips
Using two sturdy chairs or stools, place the backs facing each other, then perform “dips” between the two chairs. Feet may remain on the floor to support some body weight.
Use tone to establish pace.
Variation: Sitting in an arm chair, perform dips using the chair arms.

Place hands on knees in relaxed posture. Increase pressure on knees by contracting ab muscles, slowly bringing the torso toward knees. Maintain pressure on knees while reversing torso movement to return to starting position.
