7. USING THE UPPERCYCLE GX
Changing resistance on your UpperCycle GX is simple. The level of resistance is determined by the level indicator lo-
cated on the side of the tank. Level one indicates lightest resistance, level twenty represents heaviest resistance. The
tank’s variable fluid resistance technology ensures an instant catch and constant resistance throughout the pedalling.
Be sure to set the level +/- buttons on the console to match the resistance setting on the fluid tank lever for accu-
rate readings. Allow three to four seconds after adjusting resistance handle for the correct resistance level to be
achieved.
CHANGING RESISTANCE LEVEL
A. Stand on the foot plates with feet shoulder
width apart (feet, hips and shoulders should be
square to the machine).
B. Grip ergonomic handles comfortably and
commence rotating the cranks forward or back-
ward.
C. Stand close enough so that when either arm is
at its furthest point away from you, your arm is
comfortably extended and your shoulders are
still square.
D. If you are seeking a ‘full body’ workout, try
applying pressure from your hips and feet to
engage a fully integrated crank.
E. To stop the crank action, gradually slow motion
and apply tension in the opposite direction.
