Use this 60kg elastic band safely
Before you start exercising with your 60kg elastic, check that it's in good condition.
If it's a little worn or has a bleached area, we advise you not to use it, as it could break during an exercise.
If you're using the elastic to lighten yourself on a pull-up bar or dips bar, remember to ensure that the attachment point is suitable and doesn't present a risk of unhooking.
How do I choose the right bodybuilding elastic for my needs?
The elastic bands in our range each have a color that corresponds to their resistance level.
Blue: 5kg // Green: 15kg // Yellow: 25kg // Orange: 35kg // Red: 45kg // Black: 60kg
For muscle strengthening, start with a light resistance elastic (5 or 15kg), then gradually increase the difficulty.
To assist with pull-ups or dips, use a higher resistance. The greater the resistance, the more the rubber band will help you.
