Using the Bowflex® Ultimate™ Home Gym Hand Grips The Bowflex® Ultimate™ home gym hand grips can be used as regular grips, hand cuffs or ankle cuffs. Using Your Machine  Regular Grip: Grasp the handle and cuff together to form a grip without inserting your hand through the cuff portion. Most of the ­exercises you ­perform utilize this grip. Hand Cuff Grip: Slip your hand through the cuff portion of the grip so that the foam pad rests on the back of your hand. Then grasp the remainder of the grip that is sitting in your palm. This method of gripping is great for exercises like front shoulder raises or any exercise where your palm is facing down. Ankle Cuff Grip: The cuff opening can be made larger to accommodate the ankle. Simply insert your hand in the cuff and slide it away from the handle. Insert your foot or ankle and tighten the grip by sliding the handle back toward the cuff. Using the Bowflex­® Ultimate™ Home Gym Leg Press Belt The Leg Press Belt is used exclusively for the Leg Press and the Seated Hamstring Curl exercises. • With the Bowflex® Ultimate™ seat adjusted to the "free sliding" position (spring lock seat pin unlocked), the hand grips removed, and the desired amount of resistance hooked up, sit on the seat and position the leg press belt around your hips. • Slide forward to the pulleys and place your feet through the right and left openings under the rod cables. • Attach the rod cables to the D-rings on the Leg Press Belt so that the belt is taut. • Place hands on vertical main frame and push yourself back while placing feet, one at a time, onto the pulley frame. • Grasp belt near where it's attached to the cables and begin to press back.
