INTRODUCTION
RBS3 Resistance Band Station
The RBS3 Resistance Band Station is a wall mounted, modular resistance band training station that was
developed to give sports, tness and rehabilitative professionals the ability to utilize all types of resistance
bands to their full potential.
Ten Anchoring Points
With ten different anchoring points in a single
column, from ankle height to above the head,
the RBS3 allows users to perform hundreds
of resistance band exercises. When used in
conjunction with destabilized devices such
as stability pads or balls, the RBS3 opens
the door to a wide range of core, stability
and rehabilitative exercises.
The RBS3 Difference
• Wall mounted space saving design
• Hundreds of exercises
• Ten hooking angles
• 32 hooking options
• Up to 12 users with four-station
modular conguration
• Works with all resistance bands
• Heavy-duty construction
The RBS3 Resistance Band Station
is Patent Pending.
For the rst time in the history of tness, RBS3 users will be able to realize the important benets of
resistance band training. If you have never experienced a comprehensive resistance band program, you are
in for a big surprise. Resistance band training is one of the most effective methods for increasing functional
strength, joint stability and core strength. And, it’s fun.

Hammer Head Safety Hook
The RBS3 features the Hammer
Head Safety Hook. With its t-bar
barrier tip, the hook allows bands to
be pulled from every angle without
slipping off of the hook. Users can
exercise with condence that their
bands are securely anchored.
The hooks rounded shape was designed for smooth transitions and
ease of use. The neck of the hook is reinforced for added strength
to accommodate “extra heavy” resistance bands.
The RBS3 can be used with all types of resistance bands. Personal trainers can use medium to heavy
bands for core crunching trunk rotations, chops and presses. Therapists can take advantage of the ten
anchoring angles to design new therapeutic exercise protocols that, heretofore, were not possible. With
the RBS3, it’s as simple as looping a band over a “Hammer Head Safety Hook” and pulling. Finally, the
days of attaching bands to everything and anything are over.
Modular Design
The RBS3 is a four-component modular system that
can be congured to accommodate up to 12 users.
In its basic conguration of a vertical stack (pictured),
the RBS3 is designed for three users, one per side.
By mounting each of the four components in separate
locations, the RBS3 can accommodate up to twelve
users exercising simultaneously.
No other piece of gym equipment offers
the versatility, effectiveness and value
of the RBS3 Resistance Band Station.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Warning: The RBS3 Resistance Band Station is designed for use with rubber or latex resistance
bands. Do not fasten resistance bands to the Hammer Head Safety Hooks with metal clip hooks
or other hooks made of hard materials. This has the potential to damage the coating on the
hooks and cause premature wear. Do not use the RBS3 as an anchor for suspension type exercise
devices. Do not perform pull-ups on the RBS3.
• Read all instructions before using the RBS3.
• Consult your doctor before embarking on a tness program.
• Do not allow children or persons unfamiliar with tness equipment or exercise in general, near the
equipment. Do not leave children unsupervised around the equipment.
• Use the equipment only for its intended purpose as described in this manual. Failure to do so has the
potential to void the warranty.
• Always inspect the equipment for damage before each use. Do not use the equipment if it is damaged.

SPECIFICATIONS, TOOLS & INSTALLATION
Specications
The RBS3 consists of four components – three
lower units and one upper unit (also known as
the RBS3 Arc). There are a total of 32 Hammer
Head Safety Hooks congured to allow three
users at a time – one for each side of the
lower unit.
The lower units are 17 inches tall, 17.5 inches
wide and weigh 22 pounds. Including the hooks,
the lower unit extends 10 inches from the wall
(at the middle hook).
RBS3 Arc
The upper unit or RBS3 Arc is 28 inches wide
with a faceplate that measures four inches in
height and weighs 17 pounds. Including the
hooks, the upper unit extends 18 inches from
the wall (at the middle hook). The mounting
plates are 6 inches wide and ten inches tall.
The design, testing and labeling of the RBS3 Resistance Band Station and the RBS1 Resistance
Band Station were based on standards provided by: ASTM F 1749-09 Standard Specication for
Fitness Equipment and Fitness Safety Signage and Labels; F2276-09 Standard Specication for
Fitness Equipment; and F2571-09 Standard Test Methods for Evaluating Design and Performance
