Q. Is the Bayou Total Trainer EASY to assemble?
A. Absolutely! In fact, there's really no assembly required. Just pull it out of the box, follow a few quick instructions and you are ready to go. What's more, the Bayou Total Trainer is completely portable!

Q. How does the Bayou Total Trainer WORK?
A. The principle behind the Bayou Total Trainer is to use your own body weight on a moving board as the resistance. So, you are actually exercising directly against your own body weight.

Q. How often should I EXERCISE?
A. We recommend that you do your exercise program at least three times a week. Your initial level of fitness is important in developing an exercise program. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, increase your pulse rate but not strain your heart. If you are just starting out, you can get a good training effect with a heart rate of 110-120 beats per minute.

Q. When is the best TIME of day to exercise?
A. There is no "best time" but it is important to maintain a REGULAR exercise schedule. The best way is to INCORPORATE your exercise program into your daily routine. However, exercising right after a heavy meal should be avoided. After a light meal, mild exercise can burn up more calories than if you exercise later. Exercise before a meal often suppresses the appetite. For best results, maintain a schedule and stick with it.

Q.What are the BENEFITS of exercise?
