Um, this may be a stupid question, but how am I supposed to get the handles on the resistance band? Just knot them on? They weren't attached in the box and I can't find instructions, and the trainer lady wouldn't stop talking :laugh: so I just knotted them on and went on with the workout. But the knot came loose and I'm sure I'm going to kill myself with it one of these days if I don't get it right. :blushing:

Help?

    yea I tied a double knot to keep it from undoing.

    Ok. That's what I ended up doing, but it felt so... unscientific. :laugh: I was sure I had to be doing it wrong.

    Do you find that the straps are rough on your hands? I'm thinking about covering them with something softer before I get a blister.

    I just knotted them but really don't use resistance bands. I use hand weights and in settings you can change the program to weights instead of resistance bands.

    Good to know! I don't have hand weights, but I might pick some up next time I get to WalMart. I kind of doubt I'd be able to find them in this town. Not much retail to be had around here.
