ProsourceFit Premium Heavy Duty Tube Double Dipped Latex Xtreme Stackable Resistance Bands Set 20 to 50 LB with Door Anchor and Exercise Chart Full-Body Exercises and Home Workouts

These stackable bands really hit the spot! If you are a hard core lifter or competitor, these obviously won't be enough. Be realistic, people! If you are a huge guy lifting a ton of weight, of course they are not for you. They are not meant for competition. But for anyone else, these are great. I have worked out for years with free weights and machines. I had back surgery this year and can't lift heavy weights anymore. But I still want to be toned and strong. I shopped around for a long time-both in stores and online. You won't find a better deal than these. The price is unbeatable and the product is of good quality. For those of you afraid of breakage, I recently was sent an email from the company stating- "We have recently extended the warranty of this product to a lifetime warranty and would be more than happy to resolve any issues with this product under our new warranty policy. We believe in our products, and want to make you a believer as well. Thank you for making ProSource, your source!"Pros:1. These bands don't take up a lot of space like free weights or weight stations. No more excuses of taking up too much space!2. I love the fact that these bands can go wherever I go and take up little space when packing. Everything fits in the little bag. Being portable, you can also exercise outdoors when the weather is nice. I love going out on my deck in the morning and breathing in fresh air. I don't especially like breathing in the air in the gyms. And I get tired of working out in the same space day in and day out...3. The ability to stack the bands gives much more resistance than other sets. More is not always better. You don't need to lug around 7 bands and 14 handles-there are many combinations with the 4 bands provided. If necessary, you can order stronger bands with the ProSource Set of 3 XTREME Stackable Heavy Duty Premium Latex Resistance Exercise Bands4. Not all sets come with the ankle attachments. And the ones that come with this set are well padded with neoprene. They are not just nylon strapping like some sets I have looked at. The handles are also well padded, but not too much.5. The door anchor works well for me. The stop is large enough to stay secure in a door when closed. Just make sure your door doesn't have an abnormally large gap before using it.6. These are of good quality and have a lifetime warranty.Cons:1. For a beginner, it may not seem to have quite enough information on exercises. But a quick look on the internet and YOUtube will give you all the information you need. And almost any exercise you have done with pulleys can be easily altered to be used with bands.2. At first, I thought I wanted a bit more heavy duty carabiners for the attachments. But that would add both weight and bulk for packing. And if they ever failed, they are covered with a lifetime warranty. So it is not really a con, after all.Resistance bands are a great alternative to weights. You don't have to spend a bundle on equipment. You don't have to fork out a monthly gym membership fee. You can take it with you wherever you go. No hassles-the convenience makes you more likely to stick with it, and you are less prone to injuries from lifting incorrectly. These are great for a guy who wants to get in shape and be toned without getting bulky, women, and older folks who don't really want to lift weights. There is a reason they are so popular with physical therapists-they work!

I'm trying to get myself in shape, so I ordered P90X. One of the things they recommend is exercise bands. I debated over several options, but decided on this one because of the high reviews and the lower price. I'm so very glad I did. As you can see from the picture, there are four bands that vary in strength (tension) from five to twenty pounds. The bands include a paper that has the color to weight information included. The handles are sturdy foam over nylon with metal clips that securely attach to the bands. I received two sets of handles in my nifty little carrying case that zips close. I also received the door anchor, which was important to my exercise program as it was to be used in place of a chinup bar--which I couldn't use...yet. Anyway, the door anchor didn't look like much. Just a nylon strap with a loop on one end (that you feed the bands through) and a bulky portion on the other end that you can lay across the top of your door (then shut the door) to securely fasten the bands in position. I planned on using the bands on my closet door, but to be honest, my builder didn't use the most durable doors in my home, so I was worried about the bands/anchor breaking my doors...or the door popping open while using the bands and causing injury. But the worries turned out to be foundless. The anchor is very secure, and apparently, my door is strong enough to support the pressure from the bands. The bands are made of durable rubber material and have heavily re-enforced ends that are firmly attached to a metal loop that attached to the handles. I've been pleasantly surprised at how well they work. I've been using them for three weeks now with no problems. I will definitely be upgrading to the heavier duty bands (higher weights) by ProSource when the time comes. And one more thing, if you are debating between these and the Beach Body bands...don't. These will handle your needs without any issues, and you'll save money in the process.

Demorei um pouco para fazer a avaliação para dar tempo de usar.Os elásticos são muito bons.1. Eles permitem uma gama grande de exercícios.2. A qualidade é boa. Continuam perfeitos mesmo após o uso diário, e de mais de uma pessoa, por meses.3. As alças são confortáveis. Isso ajuda muito na execução dos exercícios.

Producto de excelente calidad! Ya llevo algún tiempo usandolas y realmente son de excelente calidad.

I've been using resistance tubing for years and they all broke at their weakest link (of course) within 6 months (one only lasted a month). Some had cheap tubing, some had cheap handles, and others had both. This prosource resistance tubing is by far the highest quality and best tubing I've ever had. First of all the handles have metal d-rings instead reinforced holes in the fabric which eventually tear. The tubing itself is very high quality from what I can tell but we'll see how it holds up as I've only had it a couple days. The tubing is smooth and sturdy with a kind of glossy finish. Not the powdery, rubbery finish that cheaper tubings have. With the reinforced tubing ends and metal clips, handles with metal rings, and general high quality of the item I expect I'll have to buy a higher resistance level before this one wears out. Just a heads up I bought the purple and it's really dark. It's so dark I mistook it for black and thought they sent me the wrong one. Also it's a bit shorter than your average brand which I always found too long so these prosource are just right. They're no more expensive than other ones at the store but considerably better so you can probably tell these come highly recommended. Lastly I'll change my glowing review if they break within a year but I don't see it, thanks

Nice bands and handles.

É perceptível a qualidade dos itens, só removi uma estrela porque não é possível stackar os pesos.
