IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: The Hammer Head Anchor Gym was designed for use with rubber or latex resistance
bands; and straps made from cotton, nylon or polypropylene. Do not fasten resistance bands or
straps 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.
• Read all instructions before using your Hammer Head Anchor Gym.
• 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 Lifetime Guarantee.
• Always inspect the equipment for damage before each use. Do not use the equipment
if it is damaged. If damaged, contact Core Energy Fitness.
The design, testing and labeling of the Hammer Head Anchor Gym 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
Characteristics of Fitness Equipment.
INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS – SPECIFICATIONS
The Hammer Head Anchor Gym in all of its congurations consists of two components: H2 and Arc.
12 13
TOOLS
To install your Hammer Head Anchor Gym you will need the tools
listed in the above photo.
Each H2 unit is mounted to drywall and wood studs (2x4)
using three 2-1/2-inch lag screws.
The lag screws penetrate the wood studs two-inches.
With three lag screws the H2 is rock solid and will not disengage.
Concrete or Block Walls
Installation into concrete and block walls requires the use of a
hammer drill. We recommend that you use a skilled professional
experienced with concrete or block structures to install your
Hammer Head Anchor Gym.
For concrete or block
walls use 5/16 (diameter)
x 2-1/2-inch (length)
sleeve anchors (supplied).
INSTALLATION
Each H2 is mounted to load-bearing wood studs using 2-1/2 inch lag screws (supplied). Each component
is mounted with three lag screws accessed through mounting holes in the H2’s base plate.
Hammer Head Anchor Gym – Mounting
Install your Hammer Head Anchor Gym with the H2 units mounted at seven feet, chest height
and ankle height.
Bottom H2 Unit:
Mount the bottom unit with
the bottom hook at ankle height
or about six-inches from the oor.
Middle H2 Unit:
Mount the middle unit with
the top hook at chest height
(in line with your sternum).
Top H2 Unit:
Mount the top unit with the top hook
at seven feet. This is the ideal height for
the Hammer Head Suspension Strap
and top-down exercises.
1. Studs. Locate a load-bearing wall stud using a stud nder.
Mark the centerline (middle) of the studs.
NOTE: In any wood frame structure, load-bearing wood studs are
always 16-inches apart. This is to accommodate the installation
of the drywall. A magnetic stud nder (the small stud nder in the
photo at left) use magnets to locate the nails used to install the
drywall. For this reason, they are very accurate. An electronic stud
nder use changes in capacitance to locate the stud.
2. Mark Hole. Hold the unit in the desired position against the wall
with the mounting hole directly on top of the centerline of the stud.
Mark the top mounting hole.
3. Drill Bit. Using a standard 3/16-inch drill bit, measure the drill bit
against the length of the lag screw. The drill bit in the photo happens
to be the same length of the lag screw (about 2-1/2-inches).
Drill a hole equal to length of the lag screw. If the drill bit is longer
than the lag screw, place a piece of tape around the drill bit marking
2-1/2-inches of the bit.
4. Starter Hole. Drill a starter hole the entire length of the drill bit
(or to the tape marking 2-1/2-inches).
14 15
InstallingYour System
To install your system, please follow these instructions.
5. Drill Bit & Lag Screw. It is important to use a 3/16-inch drill bit.
Since the lag screw’s diameter is 5/16-inches, the threads of the lag
screw will rmly grip the wood stud.
6. Secure Lag Screw. After the hole has been drilled into the stud,
insert and tighten a lag screw until it is secure.
7. Socket Wrench. Tighten the lag screw with the socket wrench.
8. Level. Level the H2 unit and mark the middle and lower
mounting holes.
16 17
Installing the Arc
Install the Arc in exactly the same manner as the
H2. The mounting holes (on the Arc’s mounting
plates) are 16-inches apart to accommodate the
distance between wood studs.
The Arc is mounted with the hooks at seven-feet.
If you are very tall, it is perfectly acceptable to
mount the Arc at any height that allows you to
perform top-down exercises comfortably.
Hammer Head Anchor Gym PLUS – Mounting
9. Drill Other Holes. Hold the H2 to the side and drill the other
two mounting holes.
10. Secure Lag Screws. Tighten the lag screws until they are secure.
11. Socket Wrench. Tighten both lag screws with the socket wrench.
12. Finish and Repeat. Repeat this process for each of the other
two H2 units.
Top H2 Unit:
Mount the top unit with the top hook at seven
feet. This is the ideal height for the Hammer Head
Suspension Strap and top-down exercises.
Bottom H2 Unit:
Mount the bottom unit with the bottom hook
at ankle height or about six-inches from the oor.
Top Middle H2 Unit:
Mount the middle unit with the top hook at chest
height (in line with your sternum).
Lower Middle H2 Unit:
Mount the lower middle H2 unit at waist height.
Threading – Bands
To reduce the length or increase the tension of a resistance
band, simply anchor the band on one hook and thread it
through a second hook.
Threading – Straps
The same applies to suspension or stretch straps.
To reduce the length of a strap, simply anchor a strap
to one hook and thread it through a second hook.
18 19
Hammer Head Anchor Gym PRO – Mounting ANCHORING AND THREADING
With a total of six Hammer Head Safety Hooks spread over three components (eight for a PLUS;
and nine for a PRO), the Hammer Head Anchor Gym provides numerous options for anchoring
bands and straps.
Arc:
Mount the Arc with the hooks at seven-feet.
This is the ideal height for the Hammer Head
Suspension Strap and top-down exercises.
Bottom H2 Unit:
Mount the bottom unit with the bottom hook
at ankle height or about six-inches from the oor.
Top Middle H2 Unit:
Mount the middle unit with the top hook at chest
height (in line with your sternum).
Lower Middle H2 Unit:
Mount the lower middle H2 unit at waist height.
Bow String Conguration
The Bow String threading technique is used for abduction
and adduction exercises. Anchor each of the band’s handles
on the H2 mounted at chest height. Thread the band through
a lower hook to create a large loop.
20 21
Basic Loop
For most exercises, especially those without vigorous
dynamic movements, it is sufcient to simply loop
the band over the hook.
Wrapping
To increase the safety of anchoring bands, the user
has the option of wrapping the band around the hook.
This will form a closed loop around the hook providing
an extra layer of safety.
This technique will also eliminate bands from slipping
while preforming exercises with alternating motions.
Stretch Strap as a Pulley
The hooks can also be used to create a pulley using
a Hammer Head eight-foot stretch strap. In the photo,
Rachel has threaded the strap on an upper hook
and placed her foot in one of the strap’s loops.
To increase the tension of the stretch, Rachel simply
pulls on the strap to produce the desired stretch.
