1. A method of operating an exercise device including a first motor, a second motor, a first spool coupled to the first motor, a second spool coupled to the second motor, a first cable coupled to the first spool for winding onto and off the first spool in response to a torque applied by the first motor, a second cable coupled to the second spool for winding onto and off the second spool in response to a torque applied by the second motor, the method comprising:
determining a first value related to an extension of the first cable from the first spool;
determining a second value related to an extension of the second cable from the second spool;
determining a difference between the first value and the second value; and
adjusting the torque applied by at least one of the first motor and the second motor based on the difference between the first value and the second value.
