Resistance Bands & Loops

Light enough for a carry-on and versatile enough for a full workout, bands come in more styles than most people expect: mini loops for warm-ups, fabric hip bands, tube sets with handles and a door anchor, long pull-up assistance bands, and flat bands sold by the roll from THERABAND.

Choose by the exercise first. Long loop bands rated in pounds help with pull-up assistance and heavy presses, tube sets let you stack bands to copy cable-machine moves, and mini loops stay put around knees or ankles. Material comes next. Natural latex is stretchy and durable, TPE suits people avoiding latex, and fabric loops are less likely to roll on bare skin. Colour codes are not standardized between brands, so compare the pound rating when mixing Tribe Lifting, VEICK or Deekin sets. For heavier progressions, see strength training or the wider home fitness range.

Brands include Tribe Lifting, VEICK and THERABAND.

In this range: steppers, cable machine attachments, baseball & softball, barbells & bars and free-weight racks.

Resistance Bands & Loops: frequently asked questions

What resistance level should I start with?

Go by the pound or kilogram rating rather than the colour, because each brand uses its own colour code. Many people use lighter bands for shoulders and arms and heavier ones for legs and glutes, so a set of three to five levels lets you progress without buying again.

Latex, TPE or fabric: what is the difference?

Natural latex bands stretch smoothly and come in the widest range of tensions. TPE bands are latex-free and work well for light to medium resistance. Fabric loops are thicker, grip the skin and are less likely to roll during squats and hip work.

How do I care for resistance bands?

Wipe them clean after use, keep them out of direct sun and away from heaters, and store them loosely rather than knotted. Check for nicks, thin spots or tears before every session and replace a band at the first sign of damage.
