2、sion.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe goal of this specification is to promote proper design and manufacturing practices forselectorized strength training equipment.
3、Through these specifications,this specification aims to assistdesigners and manufactures in reducing the possibility of injury when these products are used inaccordance with the operational instructions.The equipment user must recognize,however,that a standard alone will not necessarily preventinjur
4、ies.Like other physical activities,exercise involving selectorized strength training equipmentinvolves the risk of injury,particularly if the equipment is used improperly or not properly maintained.In addition,users with physical limitations should seek medical advice and instruction from the fitnes
