Use this 45kg elastic band safely
Always check the condition of your elastic before starting your workout. If there is a cut or bleached area, do not use the elastic, as it may break during the exercise.
If you use it to unweight yourself on a pull-up bar, remember to always check the attachment point to prevent it from unhooking during exercise.
How do I choose my bodybuilding elastic?
Our elastic bands have a different color for each resistance level:
Blue: 5kg // Green: 15kg // Yellow: 25kg // Orange: 35kg // Red: 45kg // Black: 60kg
Are you new to strengthening? Start with a light resistance rubber band (5 or 15kg), then gradually increase the difficulty.
If you're using the rubber band to assist you with pull-ups, for example, choose a higher resistance. The greater the resistance, the more the elastic helps you.
Which bodybuilding equipment to use this 45kg elastic band with
This 45kg resistance elastic can help you move more easily from pull-ups on a bar (ref: 8385106) or on a rack (ref: 8651534).
It makes you lighter on the dips bar (ref: 8584544) and safer to start with an abdominal wheel (ref: 8660093).
The greater the resistance of the elastic, the greater its help.
How to store your 45kg resistance elastic
