Meet Jon Hinds
This product was developed under the guidance of fitness expert and
professional trainer Jon Hinds, CSCS, CPT. Jon has helped everyone
from professional athletes to fitness novices increase their strength,
power, balance and endurance with functional fitness.
What is functional fitness?
Functional fitness is the cutting-edge training approach
elite athletes are using to increase performance and
prevent injury. While standard training methods isolate
muscles, functional fitness training techniques develop
balanced, efficient muscles for extraordinary results.
Lifeline functional fitness products are the same
professional grade, premium quality tools that leading
athletes use to improve their performance. And each
one comes with an easy-to-follow training guide led by
a functional fitness expert. Whether you’re looking to
improve your athletic performance or looking to improve
your overall strength and physique, the program that
works for the pros will work for you.

How to install the Pullup Revolution
To install the Lifeline Pullup Revolution, snap the black buckle over the center of your
fixed pullup bar, shown in figure 1. Make sure you can reach and grip your pullup bar with
one foot on the ground.
Using the Pullup Revolution on bars that are out of standing reach is dangerous and
should never be attempted. If your pullup bar is out of standing reach, lower it to a safe
height or use a sturdy platform that cannot slip or tip over to compensate.
Always check with the manufacturer of your pullup bar to ensure using the Pullup
Revolution will not cause the bar to fail or become dislodged before using the system.

How to adjust the Pullup Revolution
Once the Pullup Revolution is secured to your pullup bar, adjust the foot stirrup height by
pressing the steel buckle and pulling the high-density support strap, shown in figure 2.
Always adjust the stirrup so that it is as close to touching the floor as possible before using
it. As you raise the height of the foot stirrup, the assistance level increases. As you lower
the height of the foot stirrup, the assistance decreases. You can also reduce resistance by
safely removing the center cable, stretching it from one end and pulling it up through the
cable pocket channel. NEVER use only one cable.
When the foot stirrup is set to the maximum height of 3 feet, the Pullup Revolution
provides about 35 lbs. of assistance per cable. If you’re using all three cables this is
equivalent to just over 100 lbs.
To avoid overstretching the cables, NEVER adjust the foot stirrup higher than 3 feet
from the ground. Doing so will cause premature cable wear and could cause the cables
to fail. If you find you require additional assistance, upgrade to heavier cables by visiting
LifelineUSA.com. Many Lifeline cable products feature the patented 3-in-1 Cable Pocket,
which allows cables to be swapped or upgraded as you progress.
It is always a good idea to place a protective pad on the floor, under your pullup bar to
prevent or minimize chance of injury.
Basic usage of the Pullup Revolution
The Pullup Revolution is a training tool designed to allow users to practice and train up to
unassisted bar exercises from basic pullups to advanced bar moves made popular in the
streets of NYC. By offsetting some of the weight your muscles must support, the Pullup
Revolution allows you to spend more time on your pullup bar before your muscles fatigue.
This translates into longer, more effective workouts that will get you into great shape
‘above and beyond the bar’.

Balancing your workouts to combat muscle imbalance
It is important to work and develop your muscles evenly. Muscle imbalances in the body
can cause minor or severe pain, as well as promote unnatural movement and posture habits
that can lead to injury. Muscle imbalances also create inefficiency in the body that actually
reduces functional strength.
There are two basic muscle movements you’ll use to balance your body; pulling movements
and pushing movements. As you’ll see on the Pullup Revolution DVD, pulling exercises are
always paired with pushing exercises. This simple rule will help you develop more balanced
results faster!
Balance Tip:
When an exercise isolates just the right or left side of your body, always work both sides
evenly by doing the same number of reps on each side. Do this by working your weaker
side first and matching - not exceeding, the number of reps you do on your stronger side.
