Five Different Colours, Five Different Resistances

To help enable progressive strength training, the TheraBand resistance bands are available with five different resistances. Each of these resistances is colour-coded to give therapists an at-a-glance indication of a patient's progress from one rehabilitation stage to another.

Take a look at the table below to find out more about the different resistances of TheraBand available.

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 Using the Different Colours Available

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 five different resistance levels and a clear progression system, 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 TheraBand use makes their resistance bands a natural choice for professional or at-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 Yellow (Light) band, the chances of reinjury and aggravating your injury are much lower.

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 Resistance Band Rolls are made using 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. 

What Are the Dimensions of the Resistance Exercise Band?

Each colour band has an approximate measurement of:

• 2.5m (length) x 13cm (width)
