USAGE (cont.)
Use the Drive Belt Length Adjustment Button to set the Belt
length to allow the Belt to fully reach the upper end of the
exercise movement. For beginners and rehab patients
doing lower body exercises, ​ t he top position should be just
before all active joints are fully extended​ . For experienced
users, there can be some slack in the top position to
minimize strain on the belt and hook at the reversal point.
Remember ​ n ot to stop the movement in an extended
position when the flywheel is spinning as this will put strain
on your joints if hyperextended.
Bend your knees slightly and take up the slack in the Belt
using your hand to rotate the flywheel and rewind some of
the belt.
Now, accelerate the flywheel by starting the exercise at a
lower intensity. Accelerate the flywheel at every repetition.
After two to four repetitions you should have reached your
desired training intensity.
Perform your training set, usually 6-12 repetitions at desired
intensity.
Decelerate the flywheel on the way down and stop at the
bottom. Slowly return to your start position and ​ l et the
flywheel stop completely. ​ D etach the Harness, step off the
platform and prepare yourself for the next set. Make sure
you get an adequate amount of rest between sets.
