What long 208cm loops are good for

A 208cm loop is long enough to stand on and press overhead, wrap round a pull-up bar, or anchor round a post at waist height. That is the main difference from short mini bands, which only fit round the legs.

• Assisted pull-ups: loop a band over a bar, put a foot or knee in it, and the band takes some of your body weight at the bottom. Heavier bands give more help.
• Banded squats and deadlifts: stand on the band and hold it at the shoulders or hips. The band gets harder as you stand up.
• Presses and rows: anchor the band round something solid and press away from it or row towards it.
• Stretching: a light band round a foot gives a gentle hamstring or shoulder stretch.
• Travel: five bands fit in a drawer or a suitcase side pocket.

How to pick the right band for each exercise

There are no fixed kilogram ratings to rely on, because band tension changes with how far you stretch it. Use reps as the guide instead: pick the band that lets you do 12 controlled reps, and move up a colour when 15 feels easy.

Exercise	Usual starting band	Notes
Lateral raise, face pull	Lightest	Small shoulder muscles tire quickly
Biceps curl, triceps extension	Light	Stand on the band, keep elbows still
Overhead press	Light to middle	Stand on the band, press straight up
Seated or anchored row	Middle	Pull elbows past the ribs
Squat, Romanian deadlift	Middle to heavy	Legs and hips handle the most tension
Assisted pull-up	Heaviest first	Step down a band as you get stronger

Two bands can be used together when one heavy band is no longer enough for squats or deadlifts.

A three-day band program

Do these on three non-consecutive days, for 3 sets of 10 to 15 reps each, resting about 60 seconds between sets.

Day 1, lower body

1. Banded squat
2. Banded Romanian deadlift
3. Split squat standing on the band
4. Glute bridge with the band across the hips, held down by your hands

Day 2, upper body

1. Anchored row
2. Overhead press
3. Banded push-up, band across the upper back
4. Biceps curl
5. Face pull

Day 3, pull-up and full body

1. Assisted pull-up, 3 sets of 5 to 8
2. Banded squat
3. Anchored chest press
4. Lateral raise

More exercises and progressions are in the resistance band workout guide.

Who it suits, and who should pick something else

Good fit

• Anyone working towards a first unassisted pull-up.
• Apartment and spare-room training where weights would be noisy or take up floor space.
• People who travel for work and want a full body session in a hotel room.
• Lifters who want band tension added to squats and presses.

Pick something else if

• You have a latex allergy. Choose the Fabric Loop Bands (3-Pack) at $30. The leg band set is latex too.
• You mainly train glutes and legs. The Leg Resistance Band Set (13 Piece) at $52 clips short bands to padded ankle straps for kickbacks and side leg raises.
• You want steady, measurable load. Dumbbells give the same weight through the whole lift. The 5kg pair is $48 and the 10kg pair is $114. Bands vs dumbbells compares the two.

Looking after latex bands

• Check each band for nicks or thin spots before you use it, and replace any that are damaged.
• Anchor only round smooth, solid objects. Rough edges cut latex.
• Store them out of direct sun and away from heat, which make latex brittle.
• Wipe them with a damp cloth and let them dry before packing them away.

Orders usually dispatch within 1 to 3 business days, and metro delivery usually takes 2 to 7 business days after dispatch. Regional and remote areas take longer. See the shipping page.

Are these resistance bands latex?

Yes, they are natural latex. Do not use them if you have a latex allergy. The Fabric Loop Bands (3-Pack) are cotton-polyester fabric and are the latex-free option in the range.

Can long loop bands help me do a pull-up?

Yes. Loop a band over a pull-up bar and put a foot or knee in it, and the band takes some of your weight at the bottom of the pull-up. Start with the heaviest band and move to lighter ones as you get stronger.

Which resistance band should I start with?

Pick a band that lets you do 12 controlled reps of the exercise. Move up a colour when 15 reps feel easy. Most people use lighter bands for shoulders and arms and heavier ones for legs.

How long are the bands?

Each band is a 208cm loop. That length lets you stand on a band and press overhead, or loop it round a pull-up bar.
