Abstract
A cable training assembly disposable within a portable housing includes a cable configured for pulling by a user and a screw mechanism configured to deflect at least one spring. The deflection of the spring exerts a retraction force on the cable in opposition to a force exerted on the cable by the user. A selector assembly includes a knob that is rotatable by the user to select or deselect a spring acting on the cable.
