Resistance bands go by many names, but whatever you call them there is no denying the incredible benefits they can add to any workout. Originally created to assist or increase a loads resistance when performing exercises, they are now being used in ever more challenging ways. Whether you call them powerbands, power loops, fitness bands or resistance bands, they help athletes overcome speed or sticking point issues by pinpointing muscle groups. Adding to their functionality they can also be used in rehab or warm-up as a stretching tool to increase range of motion.
When used on an abrasive surface the bands can deteriorate quickly and snap. Bands should be inspected regularly for any visible wear and tear. In case of visible damage, please remove from use and replace immediately.
Bands are recommended to be used at a max. of 100% stretch (e.g. 103cm band should only be stretched to 206cm). Stretching beyond this limit is dangerous and not recommended.
