Braided Xertube Resistance Bands – Premium Exercise Band for Men & Women – Workout Equipment for Home Gym Fitness Training – Comfort Grip for Strength, Weights, and Resistance

The SPRI Braided Xertube Resistance Bands are amazing! The braided design makes them super durable and sturdy compared to regular resistance bands. I love that they provide a great full-body workout — perfect for strength training, stretching, or even warmups. The handles are comfortable and easy to grip, and the resistance level feels consistent throughout each exercise. What I love most is that you don’t need a reformer for Pilates — I only do mat Pilates, and this band works perfectly! It adds great resistance and helps tone muscles just like a reformer would. These bands are also lightweight and portable, so I can use them at home or take them to the gym. Excellent quality and performance — definitely worth it for anyone serious about fitness!

Amazing band and great quality!!!

These are fantastic for doing a pretty good and well rounded workout routine at home! Something to keep in mind also is that resistance bands differ from weights in a fundamental way since your muscles hold more tension at maximum extension; I feel that this gives me smoother movement and better form. I'm probably about as strong as the average desk worker who doesn't spend a ton of time in the gym, but does have some active hobbies. And I'm 5'6" tall. With that in mind, I think the blue band gives me a good amount of resistance with room on both sides - to make things harder or easier by controlling the slack. If you are about the same strength level but much taller, you might consider a lighter band and use the same logic for other scenarios. As for these specific bands, they are good to look at and seem to be built well and with high quality materials. The only con is that the first few times they WILL make your hands smell like rubber...faintly. Nothing that a quick wash won't remove.

They do work well for a time but they will eventually stretch thru too much thru age and use and lose resistance. I am on 3rd set.

This a must have item if your a fitness person who is on the move traveling. I take this item with me on every business and personal travel as well as at home. I use it for pre work out stretching. Very durable reliable and well built. made in the USA.

I bought the heaviest version for a 2-week trip to Australia where I wouldn't have any access to a gym. I like it much more than non-braided versions because I am not nearly as worried about the band breaking. And the built-in handle is a plus over continuous loop ones (typically the style for heavier resistance). I did three main exercises with it: a seated row, a standing press and a squat so I could effectively work my whole body (even without attaching it to a door etc). In all cases, I either stood feel shoulder width apart (press) on the band, more than shoulder width apart on the band (squat) or placed my feet spread widely apart on the band (seated row). This provided heavy resistance (I am 5'11" as a frame of reference) for the standing press, moderate resistance for the row, and fairly light resistance for the squat. So to me, I would say it's roughly the equivalent of working out with 50-55lbs dumbbells at least for these exercises. For one arm exercises like curls, it is very easy to change the resistance by moving your foot that is anchoring the cable to ground either toward or away from the handle you are lifting. When I did these three exercises in rapid sequence, it gives a decent circuit training/metabolic training effect. I wouldn't want this to be my main training modality, but for a portable option, I think it's the best I have found (it's hard to work your pulling muscles without equipment). I think it's also particularly good option for older adults who wish to add some strength training to their regimen but aren't inclined to lift weights or go to a gym - as there is significant resistance but risk of injury is relatively low. Overall pleased with the product given my expectations and needs.

It works for my weight program

I like these bands. They are very well made and have even resistance. Since there are 4 bands braided into one, I feel confident they will never snap on me. I've owned 2 others in the past and they never broke. After a couple of years the bands got a little dried out and crackly, but still maintained their integrity. I replaced them anyway with the same model.

Very good

Muy buena calidad, la resistencia 3 fue demasiado para mi, si eres principiante te recomiendo la resistencia 1 aunque salgan más caras.

Well made great resistance. still holding up after 1 year use.

Finally found a tube that is comfortable to use and doesn't break! Finally.

It’s a a great piece of workout equipment. Very well made and it is a heavy weight band
