What are the Resistance Exercise Bands?
Latex bands provide light, medium to heavy resistance during training exercises and are designed for increasing strengthening exercises during rehab and sports training.

How do they work?
Latex bands by PhysioRoom are made from a high grade medical latex. They provide a graded amount of resistance to movement depending on their elasticity. To use - simply fix them to a secure object such as wall bars, and they will provide an excellent method of resistance training for the strengthening of specific muscles and tendons.
Start with the lowest level of resistance and build sets and repetitions gradually. Then once the exercises become too easy, move on to the next level of resistance provided by the next latex band.
- Light Resistance (Green)
- Medium Resistance (Purple)
- Heavy Resistance (Blue)
Lightweight and portable, latex bands are perfect when you are on the move and heavy weights are impractical. Latex bands enable you to continue with your workout, wherever you are.
Unlike weight and pulley devices and weight machines, Latex Bands have the added advantage that all strengthening exercises can be done in functional, sports related movements. This makes them ideal for sports training - not just for people with injuries.
