The Resistance Chair has everything you need for a complete chair exercise program in your home.

The World's Most Convenient Home Gym: The Resistance Chair exercise system offered by Promolife allows you to do a full body workout from a safe, comfortable seated position. Because you remain seated, you maintain balance and stability as you exercise your arms, chest, shoulders, abdomen, back, and legs.

The patented Resistance Anchor Cable system (see below) offers a wide range of upper body and lower body exercises and provides smooth, low-impact resistance without use of heavy weights. The Resistance Chair system is made of very strong, commercial-grade construction with thick-wall steel tubing. It's built to withstand frequent use in gyms and rehab centers and has been tested to easily hold up to 400 pounds. Can be used by anyone of any age.
