Bodylastics Stackable Resistance Bands (Handles Not Included) - 5-Band Resistance Band Pack - Patented Snap Reduction Tech Workout Bands - Malaysian Latex, Strong Nickel Coated Iron Clips 190 Lbs

I have been using these bands three times a week for a number of years. They do eventually wear out, but I got two and three years out of a band. That seems pretty durable to me. The most important reason for buying these bands is that they are safe where others often are not. Each band has a rope inside so that when they break they do not snap back. A previous set of bands that I had did not have this safety feature and it hurt when it snapped back. Indeed, I read about a case of a professional baseball player who lost an eye from snap back when his exercise band broke. You use other banks that don't have this anti-snap back feature at your own risk. Note that I was recommended these bands by my physical therapist. I do also use dumbells, but these bands allow a range of exercises that free weights don't. Also, they are completely portable. Just a great product. I just ordered a new set of bands because one of them broke, but after two years of regular use.

The Bodylastic tension bands are are certainly not the cheapest bands but they are very safe and durable. I finally had one of my bands snap after many years of use. The bands have a string inside that protect from backlash if the band snaps. The company support is also excellent. If a band breaks and is out of warranty, they will provide a discounted price for the replacement. I just bought a second set of bands to supplement my existing set. It makes my workouts more efficient since I don't have to continuously change band configurations for different exercises. These bands are worth the investment for serious at home exercisers.

When they're in stock, buy them! These are the best resistance bands on the market that I've tried, I've been using this sort of thing for thirty plus years and they're the best in my experience for quality of exercise and durability and they have excellent range of motion. Only one ever broke on me and the safety cord inside did its job (it was also one of the oldest and most used ones). It's difficult to do better than Bodylastics, if there is better I'd like to know about it but until then I'll keep using these and telling people how good they are.

So disappointing. The quality of these bands has deteriorated greatly. See the photo for what a 30-pound band was in the past (which unfortunately snapped after years of use) vs. what I received. The new one is nowhere near 30 pounds and is less than half the diameter of the original. Even the "80-pound" band has nowhere near 80 pounds of resistance.Disappointed.

I use these resistance bands for upper body workouts. They are well made and reasonably priced.

Work well for me

Great alternative if you need a workout or prefer graduated resistance stretching. Happy that they don't snap and hurt me when they finally give up (after years of use). They also include a site for you to view 100s or 1,000s of band exercises as an alternative to YouTube searches. Highly recommend!

I bought this set to replace and enhance the full set I bought long time ago.. For some odd reason the bands on one of the elastics broke!! Snapped... Two or three of the elastics in the set started getting ruff feeling, then, started getting brittle.. Almost as if some chemical got on them.. It surely did not happen here, as they have been connected to the wall since I got them several years ago!!! Hummmmm... Who knows how it happened, but, of the full set I got, this only happened to about three I think. One has broken, and the other two will probably go soon. But, I still believe in the product, and I like that when the one broke, it caused no harm because it has the safety cord inside of it.. So, with that, I ordered the supplement bands, because I did not need new handles, etc... But, still a good product for the money... I like them.
