(3) Adjusting the resistance and height of the resistance bands
You can make appropriate adjustments for your upper body in altering the height of the handles or the amount of
resistance felt, by adjusting the length of the resistance band.
To adjust the resistance of the bands, simply push the resistance adjustor up or down until you reach the required
position. If you shorten the resistance bands, this increases the resistance. If you lengthen the resistance bands, this
decreases the resistance.
