What is the pound resistance of the bands?

According to the description of the bands, purple is 25 to 30 lbs, navy is 30 to 35 lbs and brown is 35 to 40 lbs. I've recently dislocated my shoulder so all the bands are too strong for my rehab. However, a good workout can be had with these bands up and down (positive and negative) through the exercise motion.

" the purple band provides 25 to 30 pounds of resistance, the navy band offers 30 to 35 pounds, and the brown band delivers 35 to 40 pounds. " Those numbers seem to match my experience in using the bands.

All 3 bands are 2" wide by 10" long. The only difference is thickness, ie the least resistance band is thinner.

Cindy,The Tower 200 comes with 3 sets of resistance bands that use a system of pulleys and they are already assembled, so all you have to do is take it out and hang it up and you're ready to go. The resistance levels are: Gray-capped cord has 25 lbs., Black-capped cord has 35 lbs., and the red-capped cord has 40 lbs. of resistance. You can use one at a time, a combination, or all 3 (on each side) at once. It also comes with hand grips and ankle straps so you can work just about any muscle you want to. I really enjoy mine and it is very easy to set up and take down. Hope this helps.

Don't know answer to question. I like the bands and multiple bands give extra resistance. Would not know how to measure full length of stretch. Guess 3 people could measure full length -- 2 to stretch and one to measure.

Medium to light resistance . However, if you have any knee problems you must be careful. I usually where mine with h2o shoes which adds resistence for a better workout.

Try 5 lbs. I'm a 200 lb. man and I use 10 lbs. I probably could use more for some of the routines, but this weight has proven effective. But I also agree with some of the other posts: (1) try the band(s), (2) try a range of weights.

I am no professional, but the band seamed original. The band was clearly less than a pound in weight. Actually mailed through the regular postal service and placed in my mail box. I thought it was paperwork in a sealed envelope.

Yes they are heavy resistance. I had bought some smaller ones and they moved through the water too easily and they wouldn't hold me up in the water for some exercises. These take some effort to move around.

Per the package: The resistant level of #729 bells is equal to approximately 9-12 pounds, #727 bells is equal to approximately 15-18 pounds, and #725 bells is equal to approximately 22-25 pounds.

All bands have the same circumference and same width. Length is 10 " (flat) and width is 1 7/8. Blue is light resistance, green is medium and red is heavy.

You can use any size up to about an inch. Weight is more important as too much weight will overwhelm the bands.

Unless they have physically changed the device in the past year (and not incremented the model number), I don't think it is possible. There are only two empty slots (one on each side) for additional resistance bands past the 'out of the box' 210 lbs. Those two slots are intended for the 50 lb bands to equal 310 lbs max.

Hello. These resistance bands are closed loops, and measure 2 inches in width and 10 inches in length when laid flat. Their circumference is 20 inches. The 3 bands are of different thicknesses, ranging from .7 mm to 1.2 mm, which of course gives them their 3 various levels of resistance. Thanks for your interest!

Hey Martha...I use them everyday w multiple clients and they have kept up their tension thus far. I've purchased bands in the past and these so far have been the best I've worked with. Hope this helps

I am not sure. I have never bought another brand of these bands. They still work great. I am a personal trainer and use them all the time with my clients.

these bands are 3 different strengths, light, medium, and heavy, they are not weights but ressitent bands, used differently than weights, so getting these bands can be used very safely and will work for all types of work-outs using bands, hope this helps
