Description

  • Set doors narrow or wide, adjust seat pad to the lower incline position and bench to vertical position, attach abdominal/triceps strap* or triceps rope* (both sold separately) to high pulley and set resistance.
  • Sit in bench facing away from base tower, grasp ab/triceps strap or rope handles so it rests comfortably around neck with handles on upper chest.

  • Return to start position and repeat.
