Tubing contains natural rubber latex which may
cause allergic reactions, such as mild itching, skin
redness or hives. The allergic reactions may also
be life threatening, such as anaphylactic shock,
which can cause a drop in blood pressure, difficulty breathing, blueness of your skin, or even loss
of consciousness. Seek medical attention immediately if you think you are experiencing any reaction
to the latex.
Refer to your User Guide for additional safety instructions.
Consult your physician before starting this or
any other exercise program. Fitness training can
result in serious injury or death. Risk of injury can
be lessened when safe technique and common
sense are practiced. Failure to read and follow the
safety instructions stated in the User Guide and on
this Workout Chart may result in serious injury or
death.
Only perform the exercises shown on the
Workout Chart. Performing exercises or movements not specifically shown may overstretch
the bands. DO NOT stretch bands more than two
times band length. Overstretching the bands can
cause the band/s to separate from the cloth loops,
resulting in serious injury to your eyes and/or
other body parts.
Do not use the bands if your hands are wet or
greasy. When using the handle/s, follow the di-

rections carefully for attaching the handle/s to


band/s. Securely grip the handle/s to prevent
them from slipping out of your hand. Losing your
grip can cause bands to snap. If you plan to anchor
the bands to a stationary object (including using
the door anchor), follow the directions carefully
(found on the back of the product packaging/box).
Test before using by pulling on the handles (not to
exceed 2 times band length) to make sure that the
stationary object can support your weight and that
the band is securely attached to the stationary object (and door anchor when using it).
Keep bands out of reach of children they are not a
toy. DO NOT permit children in exercise area when
using bands.
Keep bands away from sunlight, direct heat sources, dampness, grease and sharp objects that may
result in cuts or punctures. Closely examine the
bands for nicks, tears, punctures and other flaws.
If you find any flaws, do not use the bands.
Do not use the equipment in any manner that may
cause it to snap towards the body and cause injuries to you or others. Because the bands have elastic properties, the bands may snap toward you if
they break during use or if they are released while
under stress. This can result in serious injury to
your eyes and other body parts. It is extremely
important that you use smooth, controlled movements and never release the bands while they are
under stress.
