An exercise device for attachment to an exercise machine or as an independent stand alone exercise device that includes an enclosure having an outer wall that defines an internal space therein, at least one cable aperture and an attachment mechanism for attaching to the exercise machine. A winding assembly is rotationally captured within the internal space and includes a winding spool configured for receiving at least one cable wound there around under resistance provided by a motor. The motor is used in conjunction with a controller circuit, a power source, and a user interface. To perform exercises with the exercise device, a person sets a desired cable unwind resistance with the user interface and then repeatedly pulls and retracts the at least one cable.
