Hand Grip

The hand grips fit snugly around your ankle, instep
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 handle 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.
Simply insert your hand in the
cuff and slide it away from the handle. Insert your
foot or ankle and tighten the grip by sliding the
handle back toward the cuff.

Arch Cuff Grip: The cuff opening can also fit
securely over the arch of your foot. For this grip,
insert your foot through the cuff until it is around
the arch of your instep, and tighten the cuff
around your heel to secure the grip.
