The Resistance Advantage

I feel like it was important to properly explain how you can increase or decrease the load using the resistance bands.

First of all, the carriage itself weights 68 kgs and at the 45-degree angle it gives you an approximate resistance of 34 kgs.

While it may not be a problem to lift this weight for most of the hardcore bodybuilders, it may be a problem for some beginners and those who are going through rehab.

ATX® have added a few rollers & mounting points so that you could both increase or decrease the weight load or changing the force curve.

How to increase it:

Use the resistance band pegs which are sitting at the bottom of the frame, right next to your leg press seat. They have been welded to the frame, so you don’t have to worry about them going missing (in case you are running a commercial gym, or have kids.)

Attach the resistance band to the first peg, then go under the following one and hook it up on the weight horns of the sled.

They come with nylon sleeves, which roll on to the welded-on band pegs. This not only helps the resistance band move more freely but also extends its longevity as it is not getting stuck and torn apart by metal pieces.

The pegs also feature stoppers which keep both the nylon sleeves and the resistance band in place.

How to decrease it:

If you have ever tried doing hack squats, you know that they can be taxing on your knees and having a high starting load definitely does not help you or make this exercise more comfortable.

Pull the pin out the resistance band adjustment system in the back and thread the resistance band through.

Simply put it over the top rollers and hook it up to the carriage.

You can increase/decrease the resistance and the force curve using the handle with the pull pin in the back of the machine.

Obviously, you can use this system for all four exercises – leg presses, hack squats, seated calf presses, standing calf raises.

Is it difficult to assemble?

A lot of people believe that the equipment is difficult to assemble as it involves a lot of small parts. But it is nothing like your Ikea drawers! Even though the equipment is being shipped as flat packed, a lot of pieces are already pre-assembled.
It took me around 4 hours to get this leg press up and running, that is with the right tools, a bit of knowledge and two left hands.
I would recommend asking a mate to help you out, as some pieces are quite heavy and may be tricky to bolt on.
