Description Adjust the resistance of your NOHRD SlimBeam by swapping out the cable. Choose from 3 different ratios: 3:1, 2:1, and 1:1. The ratio you select will directly affect the resistance on the machine. A higher ratio results in lower overall resistance, but also means smaller increments between weight plates. Keep in mind that a higher ratio corresponds to a longer cable (for example, a 2:1 cable is twice as long as a 1:1 cable). To calculate the exact resistance, divide the weight on the stack by the first number in the cable ratio. If unsure read our understanding cable ratios article. Features The cable ratio determines the actual resistance on the SlimBeam A higher cable ratio number means lower overall resistance, but smaller increments between weight plates A higher cable ratio is a longer 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
