Power Rod Resistance
®
Power Rod resistance rods are made from a special
®
composite material. Your rods are sheathed with a
protective black rubber coating. Each rod is marked
with its weight rating on the "Rod Cap."
If you upgraded to a 310 (140 kg) or 410 pound (186
kg) capacity you will have an additional one or two
pair of 50 lb. (22.5 kg) rods, respectively.
Hooking Power Rod
to the Cables
You may use one rod or
several rods in combination,
to create your desired
resistance level.
To hook multiple rods up
to one cable, bend the
closest rod toward the cable
and place the cable hook
through that rod cap. You
can then hook up the next
closest rod through the same
cable hook.
Hooking up the closest
rod first prevents rods from
crossing over the top of
one another.
