HOW TO USE THE CHEST EXPANDER

To adjust resistance

The Lifeline Chest Expander

 comes with three cables, each with 30 lbs. peak resistance. 

You can adjust the peak resistance anywhere from 30-90 lbs. by simply adding or 
removing cables. 
1.  To add a cable, stretch the end of the cable so that it slides into the cable pocket 

channel of one of the handles. Then, repeat this with the other end of the cable and 
insert it into the corresponding cable pocket on the second handle. In other words, 
if you insert one end of the cable into the center cable pocket on one handle, make 
sure you insert the other end into the center cable pocket of the other handle. When 
stretched, the cables should not  
cross each other.

2.  To remove a cable, stretch the end of the cable so it slides out of the cable pocket 

channel. Repeat this with the other end of the cable. 

Basic usage

1.  Start with a low resistance, then work your way up.
2.  Never stretch the cables more than three times their resting length. Doing so could 

cause the cables to wear out faster or even snap, causing potential injury and/or 
damage.

3.  A wide variety of exercises are possible with the Chest Expander, including lateral flies, 

shoulder presses and even bicep curls.

4.  When working out, be sure to maintain proper alignment and posture by keeping your 

chest up and head neutral, your abs slightly contracted and your feet shoulder-width 
apart.
