TheraBand Latex-Free Resistance Band Rolls
TheraBand make resistance bands that are extremely popular with physios and other medical professionals, but their standard model is made with latex, which can cause skin reactions in some people. These TheraBand Latex-Free Resistance Band Rolls offer the same great quality and wide range of resistance levels, but are completely free from latex or powder to prevent irritation. They're also housed in convenient dispenser boxes that make it easy to cut the exact size piece of resistance band you need.
What's Included?
- 1 x Roll of Latex-Free Resistance Bands
Please note: the TheraBand Resistance Band Rolls are available in seven different resistance levels and two lengths, which you can select from the dropdown menu above.
Who Can Use the TheraBand Resistance Bands?
As these Resistance Bands are supplied in seven different resistance levels and can be cut into whatever length needed, anyone could benefit from using them. This ranges from the severely immobile and those in rehab, to the most dedicated and fit athletes.
What Do the Different Colours Represent?
The seven different colours of TheraBand represent seven different resistance levels. Please see the table below find out what strength each colour signifies.
| Colour and Resistance | Resistance at 100% Elongation | Resistance Increase |
| 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 Resistance Bands Be Used For?
With seven 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: consult a professional before undertaking a treatment plan.
Perfect for Getting Fit!
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.
Completely Latex-Free
While many latex-free resistance bands offer reduced performance compared with their latex counterparts, the TheraBand latex-free bands don't. This enables patients with latex allergies and latex-free facilities to fully reap the benefits provided by TheraBand resistance bands.
Available in Two Lengths
The TheraBand dispenser packs are available in two lengths ideal for home and professional use. The resistance bands are available in lengths of 22.9 metres or 45.5 metres to help you get the amount you need and save money. Please note that the 45.5m roll is not available in silver (Super Heavy) or gold (Max Heavy).
