ELASTIC EXERCISE BAND

Definition

Resistive elastic exercise bands, colour coded according to the level of resistance

Synonym

Theraband, Fysioband

Specifications

  • Silicone-coated elastic bands
  • Different resistance levels are determined by thickness of the band. The force produced by bands is directly related to elongation. Each colour will provide a specific amount of resistance at the same percent elongation, regardless of initial resting length. The force slowly increases as the band is stretched.
  • Minimum sizes:
    • Length = comes in rolls of +/- 5 m to 45 m, to be cut to 150 - 200 cm
    • Width = 12 cm to 20 cm
  • Type of extensibility:
    • Yellow: light resistance
    • Red: medium resistance
    • Green: strong resistance
    • Blue: extra strong resistance
    • Black: XX strong resistance

Precautions for Use

  • Always inspect the band for tears or abrasions before use.
  • Jewelry, fingernails, and other sharp objects may cause small tears or abrasions.
  • Always protect the eyes during exercise with elastic bands.
  • Do not stretch bands beyond 3 times their resting length (300% elongation).
