Flex band expander exercises
(KH 6003/3)
Safety information
• The bands stretch to a maximum length of 1.70
metres which should not be exceeded.
• Injuries can be caused by the bands springing
back in an uncontrolled manner.
• Never use the expander without the safety caps
as the whip effect can cause injury in the event of
a band becoming detached.
• Too intensive training can strain your joints.
Introduction
The expander comprises two handles which can be
linked by a maximum of four flex bands. The flex
bands are secured against becoming detached by
a cap.
When exercising, pull the expander apart slowly
and evenly and then allow it to retract again.
Use as many flex bands as to enable you to per-
form an exercise from start to finish with eight to ten
repeats.
Choose the central position if using a single flex
band and the two outside positions if using two flex
bands. If you wish to use three flex bands, use the
two outside positions and the central one, and only
use the outside positions if you wish to exercise with
four flex bands.
Removing the flex bands
1. Press one of the yellow flex band ends towards
the handle. This pushes the black cap upwards
enabling it to be removed (Fig. 1).
2. Slide the yellow end of the flex band which you
wish to remove upwards. Turn it through 90°
(Fig. 2).
3. Pull the yellow flex band end downwards and
out of the handle (Fig. 3).
4. Replace the black cap.
5. Perform steps 1 – 4 on the other handle, too.
