USING THE KBOX (cont.) 

 

 

 

Using the Grip/Bar 

Attach the desired Grip or Bar. 

 

 

Position your feet as described above. 

 

 

Use the Drive Belt Length Adjustment Button to set the top position for 
the actual exercise.  As with the harness, for beginners, rehab patients, 
and  upper  body  exercises,  the  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, though, to not stop the movement in 
an extended position, as this will put strain on your joints. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Put the flywheel in motion to roll up the belt.  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. 

 

 

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.
