Ready to Use
THERABAND Tubing with Hard PVC Handles provide the added convenience of attached handles for a ready-to-use solution. The latex tubes offer resistance levels ranging from Thin to Super Heavy, depending on your needs. The progressive resistance system is ideal for patients undergoing physical rehabilitation to track their progress or those looking to steadily upgrade their workouts.
Easy Portability
Due to their easy portability, effectiveness, and low cost, resistance tubing is a popular rehabilitation and training tool. You can easily pack these in your suitcase or work bag to get in a quick workout anytime and improve your muscular strength.
Less Stress on Joints
Resistance tubing does not inflict the impact or stress on your joints and tendons that free weights do. Tubing puts your support and stabilizer muscles to work by generating resistance from several directions. The core muscles must be activated when using resistance bands, which in turn improves posture and increases coordination.
The Original Trusted Progression™ System
Elastic resistance force and torque
Elastic resistance is a unique type of resistance training compared to other traditional forms, such as isotonic or isokinetic resistances. The resistance provided by elastic bands or tubing is based on the amount that the band or tubing is stretched. This resistance can be measured in pounds/kilograms of force depending on the percentage the band or tubing is stretched from its resting length; this is known as force-elongation.
Regardless of how long the band or tubing is before it’s stretched, the force produced at its stretched length depends on the percent elongation. For example, an initial 2-foot (60 cm) length of green band that is stretched to 4 feet (120 cm, double its resting length) is at 100% elongation. Therefore, the resistance of the band is 4.6 pounds at that elongation. Each progressive step represents a consistent pull-force increase of 25% in the clinical range (Tan through Black) and 40% in the advanced range (Silver and Gold).
