What Do the Different Colours Represent?
The eight different colours of TheraBand represent eight different resistance levels. Please see the table below to find out which 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% |
What Does 100% Elongation Mean?
The strength classifications of TheraBand 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 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 Tubing 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 Tubes 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 TheraBand Sports Band Tubes 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.
