Change the SlimBeam resistance by exchanging the cable. Available in 3:1, 2:1 and 1:1.
- The cable ratio determines the actual resistance on the SlimBeam
- A higher cable ratio number meanslower overall resistance, but smaller increments between weight plates
- A higher cable ratio is alonger cable than a lower cable ratio (a 2:1 cable is twice the length of a 1:1 cable)
- Divide the weight on the stack by the first number in the cable ratio to know the actual resistance of a cable machine
For further information on the cable ratio, please see read an extended explanation here.
