Accessories and Equipment
Hand Grips: The Hand Grips fit snugly around your hand, ankle, or wrist. Attach the pulley cable clips to
the D-Rings on the Hand Grips to attach them to the cables.
Standard Grip: Grasp the grip and cuff together to form a grip
without inserting your hand through the cuff portion. Most of the
exercises you perform utilize this grip. The Standard Grip also is
used for Hammer Grip exercises, when you need to hold the Hand
Grip vertically for greater wrist support.
Hand Cuff Grip:
Slip your hand through the cuff portion of the grip so that the foam pad
rests on the back of your hand. Then grasp the remainder of the
grip that is sitting in your palm. This method of gripping is great
for exercises like front shoulder raises or any exercise where your
palm is facing down.
Ankle Cuff Grip: The cuff opening can be made larger to
accommodate the ankle. Place your hand in the cuff and slide it
away from the grip. Insert your foot or ankle and tighten by sliding
the grip back toward the cuff.
Rowing Belt: The Rowing Belt is used exclusively for Aerobic Rowing.
With the seat in the “free sliding” position, and the desired amount of resistance hooked
up, sit on the seat, attach the belt to the Chest Bar cables and cinch the adjustment strap
on the belt by pulling the strap until the belt is taut. You may grasp the belt near the cables
to give yourself additional stability when rowing.
Lat Cross Bar: The Lat Cross Bar enhances exercises that work back, shoulders and triceps muscles.
Safety:
• Before using the Lat Cross Bar, make sure that all fasteners are in place and tightened.
• Make sure that the Lat Tower cables are securely fastened to the regular Bowflex®
cables and the Bent Lat Bar, Squat Bar or Hand Grips.
• Always use the Bent Lat Bar holders to support the Bent Lat Bar, or remove the bar when
not in use.
• Do not hang from or attempt to perform “chin ups” from the Lat Cross Bar.
• Never pull on the Bent Lat Bar unless there is resistance attached to it.
Leg Extension: Designed to add more effectiveness exercises that target your legs, thighs, calves, etc.
Safety:
• Before using the Leg Extension, make sure that all fasteners are in place and tightened.
• Make sure that the Extension’s cables are securely fastened to the regular cables.
• When installing the Leg Extension Seat always ensure that the Support Tube Bracket
Hooks fully engage with the Roller Tube Spacers.
• Always use the supplied Lockout Pin to secure the Leg Extension Pivot Tube to the Rear
Leg when not in use.
