Handles and Attachments

How to Use Handles & Attachments

VOLTRA I uses a standard carabiner hook, so you can clip in most cable attachments. That includes Beyond Power accessories and common gym handles, bars, ropes, and straps.

Compatibility

Common attachment types:

Single handle: single-arm rows, presses, curls, lateral raises

Straight bar or lat bar: two-handed rows, presses, straight-arm pullovers

Rope handle: triceps work, face pulls, curls, crunches

Ankle strap: lower-body isolation work like kickbacks, abduction, leg curls

Harness: lower-body loading without grip being the limiting factor

Swapping attachments

Stop the resistance and make sure there's no tension on the cable.

Return the cable to the start position.

Unclip the carabiner and remove the attachment.

Clip in the new attachment.

Check the carabiner gate is fully closed before you start the next set.

If you're trying a new attachment or a new movement, do a light test pull first.

Accessory highlights

Ankle Strap

Use it for leg-focused work like kickbacks, hip abduction/adduction, and leg curls. It's also useful for rehab-style lower-body isolation.

Squat Harness

Use it when you want to load squat and hinge patterns without turning every set into a grip workout.

Functional Rope

A simple way to expand upper-body and core work. Use it for triceps extensions, face pulls, curls, pullovers, and cable crunches.

Bars (straight bar or lat bar)

Best for two-handed movements where you want a balanced pull. Most bars have a central eyelet, so clip the carabiner there for an even load.

Basic Handle

Your default for single-arm training. Great for curls, single-arm rows, presses, lateral raises, rear delts, and anti-rotation work.

Premium Carabiner

An optional upgrade if you want a heavier-duty carabiner option for swapping attachments.

Rotator Add-on (optional)

The sits between VOLTRA I and a compatible AnyMount accessory, allowing the device to rotate as you apply force. It's most useful when your direction of pull changes during the rep, like chops, lifts, and rotational pulls.

Setup is simple:

Unload first and return the cable to the start position.

Remove VOLTRA I from the mount.

Install the Rotator Add-on onto the mount, then attach VOLTRA I onto the Rotator.

Confirm everything is properly locked, then do a light test pull before you go heavier.

Using multiple units or specialised attachments

Some advanced users run two VOLTRA I units at once for symmetrical work or crossover-style training. If you ever do that, start light, keep cable paths separate, and avoid crossing lines where they could rub or tangle.

Practical tips

If you can attach it, you can probably use it. Just make sure the attachment is designed for cable training, the connection is secure, and you start light the first time you try it.
