4. Setup and Assembly
4.1 Attaching Handles
- Select the desired resistance band.
- Thread one end of the resistance band through the loop of a handle.
- Pull the band through until it is securely fastened. Repeat for the second handle on the other end of the band.
4.2 Using the Door Anchor
- Open a sturdy door.
- Place the foam end of the door anchor over the top, bottom, or side of the door frame. Ensure the anchor is on the side of the door that closes towards you during exercise to prevent it from opening.
- Close the door firmly, ensuring the anchor is securely trapped.
- Thread your resistance band through the fabric loop of the door anchor.
- Always test the door anchor's security before beginning your workout.

5. Usage Guidelines and Exercise Examples
5.1 General Usage
- Choose the Right Resistance: Start with a lighter band to master proper form before progressing to higher resistance.
- Maintain Proper Form: Focus on controlled movements throughout the entire range of motion. Avoid jerky movements.
- Breathing: Exhale during the exertion phase and inhale during the recovery phase.
5.2 Pull-up Assistance
Resistance bands are excellent for assisting with pull-ups. Loop a band around the pull-up bar and place your foot or knee into the bottom loop of the band. The band will provide upward assistance, making pull-ups more accessible as you build strength.

- Upper Body: Bicep curls, tricep extensions, shoulder presses, rows.
- Lower Body: Squats, lunges, glute bridges, leg presses.

6. Safety Precautions
- Inspect Bands: Before each use, carefully inspect bands for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. Do not use damaged bands.
- Secure Attachment: Ensure bands are securely attached to handles, door anchors, or other anchor points to prevent snapping back.
- Controlled Movements: Perform exercises with slow, controlled movements. Avoid releasing bands suddenly.
- Avoid Sharp Edges: Do not use bands over sharp or abrasive surfaces that could cut or damage them.
- Eye Protection: Consider wearing eye protection, especially when performing exercises where bands are stretched near the face.
- Consult a Professional: If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are new to exercise, consult a healthcare professional or certified trainer before starting any new workout routine.
7. Care and Maintenance
7.1 Cleaning
Wipe bands with a damp cloth after use. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly and air dry completely before storing. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
7.2 Storage
Store bands in the provided storage bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and sharp objects. Prolonged exposure to sunlight or heat can degrade the TPE material.
8. Troubleshooting
- Band feels less resistant: Over time, bands may experience slight changes in elasticity with heavy use. Ensure you are using the correct resistance level for your exercise. If a band feels significantly weaker or shows signs of damage, replace it.
- Bands rolling up during exercise: This can happen with wider bands during certain movements. Adjust your grip or anchor point, or try a different exercise variation. Ensure the band is flat against your body or anchor.
- Discomfort from handles: Ensure handles are properly attached and your grip is firm but not overly tight. If discomfort persists, consider adjusting your hand position or using gloves.
