What Do the Different Colours Represent?
The eight different colours of TheraBand represent eight different resistance levels. Please see the table below find out what strength each colour signifies.
Colour and Resistance | Resistance at 100% Elongation | Resistance Increase |
---|
Tan (Super Light) | 1.1kg (2.4lb) | - |
Yellow (Light) | 1.3kg (3lb) | 25% |
Red (Medium) | 1.7kg/3.7lb | 25% |
Green (Heavy) | 2.1kg/4.6lb | 25% |
Blue (Extra Heavy) | 2.6kg/5.8lb | 25% |
Black (Special Heavy) | 3.3kg/7.3lb | 25% |
Silver (Super Heavy) | 4.6kg/10.2lb | 40% |
Gold (Maximum) | 6.5kg/14.2lb | 40% |
What Does 100% Elongation Mean?
The strength classifications of TheraBands are graded by their resistance at "100% Elongation". By 100% elongation, we mean when a length of band has been stretched to twice its original measurement. This applies to any length of measurement you cut from the roll. For example, if you cut a 100cm length of TheraBand, 100% elongation would be when the piece is stretched to 200cm.
Easily Track Progress with Different Band Colours
The colour-coded resistance spectrum makes it easy to track the progression of you or a patient. The colours represent different resistance levels as seen above, so simply move up a colour level when an incremental increase is desired.
What Can the Latex Resistance Bands Be Used For?
With eight different resistance levels, a clear progression system, as well as a roll design that allows you to cut exactly how long a piece is needed, the TheraBand Resistance Bands are hugely versatile. They're great for a variety of scenarios, including but not limited to:
- Increasing strength
- Increasing flexibility
- Toning
- Rehabilitation
- Physiotherapy
- Stretching before or after exercising
Fantastic for Rehab
The progression system of the TheraBands make them a natural choice for professional or home rehabilitation. It allows you to build your strength back gradually over time, even when recovering from a serious injury. If you start with a lower resistance level like the Tan (Super Light) band, the chances of reinjury or aggravating your injury are much lower.
Please note: We recommend consulting a professional before undertaking a treatment plan.
What Exercises Can I Do with TheraBands?
As we've mentioned, TheraBands are really versatile, particularly the rolls, which can be cut into whatever length is needed. As such, they're great for toning your body and increasing your fitness, even if you're not recovering from an injury. Whether from a personal trainer or the internet, you can find a huge number of resistance band exercises, but we've also listed a few below to get you started:
- Lateral walk
- Abductions
- Banded front squats
- Lateral raises
- Squats
- Leg press
- Bicep curls
- Tricep press
Take Bodyweight Exercise to the Next Level
Lifting heavy weights isn't for everyone and some people prefer bodyweight exercises, but other than simply raising the amount of reps, this can be limiting. Adding TheraBand Resistance Bands to bodyweight exercises can raise the difficulty, building your fitness and strength levels. But because of how lightweight and compact they are, you can still exercise at home or outside.
Tough, Natural Latex Build
These rolls of resistance bands are made of TheraBand's specially formulated natural latex. Not only is it naturally elastic, which is great for exercise, but it's also really durable and has a comfortable feel.
Available in Two Lengths
The TheraBand Dispenser Rolls are available in two lengths, six yards (5.5 metres) or 50 yards (46 metres) ideal for home and professional use. Please select your preferred length from the dropdown menu above.
Prefer Non-Latex TheraBand Resistance Bands?
As we mentioned, latex is tough and flexible, but latex allergies are common, which can cause skin reactions. Luckily we also carry TheraBand's non-latex model of resistance bands.
