Safety Information
- Always inspect bands for any signs of wear, tears, or damage before each use. Do not use damaged bands.
- Do not stretch bands more than 2.5 times their original length.
- Avoid releasing stretched bands suddenly, as this can cause injury.
- Keep bands away from sharp objects, abrasive surfaces, and direct sunlight to prevent damage.
- Consult a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
- Use the protective covers provided, especially when using bands with shoes or rough surfaces, to extend band life.
Setup
Attaching Handles:
To attach the handles, simply loop the resistance band through the D-ring of the handle and pull it tight. Ensure the band is securely fastened before beginning your exercise.
Using the Door Anchor:
- Open a sturdy door.
- Place the foam end of the door anchor on the opposite side of the door from where you will be exercising.
- Close the door securely, ensuring the anchor is firmly trapped.
- Loop the resistance band through the fabric loop of the door anchor.
- Always pull the band away from the door hinge side to prevent the door from opening during exercise.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe bands with a damp cloth after use. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store bands in the provided carry bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Inspection: Regularly check bands for any signs of wear or damage. Replace bands if they show cracks, tears, or loss of elasticity.
Troubleshooting
Band Snapping/Breaking:
This is usually due to excessive stretching, nicks, or prolonged exposure to harsh conditions. Always inspect bands before use and avoid stretching them beyond their recommended limit. Ensure they are not rubbing against sharp edges.
Loss of Resistance:
Over time, resistance bands may lose some elasticity. If a band no longer provides adequate resistance, it may be time to replace it or combine it with another band for increased challenge.
