Description
The Resistance Exercise Tube has soft grip handles for uninterrupted rehab and training exercises. These red, blue and yellow coloured tubes provide light to heavy resistance, ideal for progressing strengthening exercises.
Unlike weight and pulley devices and weight machines, the figure of eight tubes allow for all strengthening exercises to be done in functional, sports related movements. This makes them perfect not only for people with injuries but for sports training. The varied levels of resistance are; Yellow – 9kg, Red – 13kg, Blue – 16kg. When pulling the weight the resistance will equal that of that signified weight. For example; pulling the 9kg weight with both hands equates to the same weight as 9kg dumbbell.

How it Works
Resistance Tubes are made from a high grade medical rubber, 99.99% free from latex allergens. Depending on their level of elasticity, they provide a graded amount of resistance to movement. They 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 Resistance Exercise Tube.
