CrossCore® User Guide & Manual

Preparation

Prior to beginning any workout on your CrossCore®, always read and follow the instructions in this manual: 

•   When teaching a physical fitness-oriented course, class or individual training session, always be sure 

to “check-in” with participants about previously existing injuries and/or physical limitations, and please 

ensure they have been cleared by their physician to complete an exercise program. 

•   Prepare your body for CrossCore training with a proper warm-up. 

•   Warm-ups should be performed for at least five minutes be the exercise (jogging, running, fast-walking, 

stationary bike, elliptical, calisthenics, jump rope, etc.) and should be followed by stretching of the major 

muscle groups. 

•   Make sure pulley is in Locked-N-Loaded™ mode with the Pin Engagement System™ or “PES™” engaged/

locked at the bottom of the pulley housing. Only after you have familiarized yourself with the CrossCore® 

RBT™ and are confident of your abilities and strength should you “PULL THE PIN!™” or remove the pin 

from the pulley allowing the pulley wheel to rotate freely. 

•   Once the CrossCore is in a hanging position, always perform a weight test by pulling or tugging on the 

pulley housing to ensure that the system is safely secured in its hanging position. 

•   When you let go of the handles, always be sure to not let them loose so that they may swing and hit 

another nearby person. It is better to step towards the pulley and release the handles straight down 

under the pulley. 

•   If you experience any pain, discomfort, light-headedness or extreme fatigue, STOP what you are doing 

in a safe manner immediately. If symptoms persist after you have stopped the exercise, seek immediate 

medical attention.
