  • Page 8 If training without both feet on the kBox4 is anticipated, the platform must be attached to the floor or weighted down so it cannot move. Gradually from May 2019, the Flywheel Knob is fixed to a holder under the kBox4 when shipped. exxentric.com/support...
  • Page 9 They all fit the kBox4 Pro and all but the 0.070 kgm fit the kBox4 Lite and Active. You can mount up to four flywheels on the kBox4 Lite and Pro, and two flywheels on the kBox4 Active. Do not try to mount more than the maximum capacity of flywheels.

  • Page 13 The kBox4 is quieter when training. The area does not have to be equipped with sound reducing materials. There is a much lower risk of collision, meaning more people can work out in a smaller room without the risk of interfering with each other and causing injuries. exxentric.com/support...
  • Page 14: Usage

    Be sure the harness fits well and is not too loose (various sizes are available). It should not slip down over the shoulders. The upper chest strap can be loose but the bottom strap has to be more tight for best use. exxentric.com/support...
  • Page 15 Decelerate the flywheel on the way down and stop at the bottom. Slowly return to your start position and let the flywheel stop completely. Detach the harness, step off the platform and prepare yourself for the next set. Make sure you get an adequate amount of rest between sets. exxentric.com/support...
  • Page 16 Perform your training set, usually 6-12 repetitions. Decelerate and stop the flywheel on the way down. Don’t put down the handle or grip before the flywheel(s) has come to a complete stop. Rest accordingly. exxentric.com/support...
  • Page 17 For max strength, slow and controlled movements with high force and low speed are warranted and hence require more inertia. The flywheel workout zones can be helpful, if you want to read more about this, please go to: https://bit.ly/2NENUNE exxentric.com/support...

    Since this will be slow, controlled, and submaximal forces, it is easier to correct and less risk for injury or technical error. When the technique is correct, increase the intensity and/or lower the inertia for higher speed and more power. exxentric.com/support...
