Braided Xertube Resistance Band

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!

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.

Extra heavy is best option. Durable. Good quality/value. Highly recommend

the quality is good, but the length is way too long then you need it, which makes is slightly inconvenient to use

I had one of these for 14 years and it never broke. The only reason I had to order a new one was because the outer latex or rubber started breaking down into powder!!! Unreal. LOVE these.

Honestley this band is really heavy duty I’m not sure what the amount of tension is but its definitely enough to get a good workout I highly recommend these if your looking for one of these.

This was a replacement of one I used so much, one of the bands actually broke. The variation of resistance is reduced by the braiding, giving a smoother, more consistent draw. Not thrilled with the handle. With a band, the handle is going to contact your arm, depending on the excercise. Wearing a wristband helps.

Excellent for resistance exercises. Good quality and seems to be very durable.

Very good

I bought it to do some bear crawl sled pulls and needed something very strong. These fit the bill and great for stretch exercises and even heavy weight lifting exercises. Because of the strength and durability, you can get real creative. Definitely worth the price.

This equipment was suggested to me by my teacher so it's perfect for me.

Es un producto de excelente calidad, cumple con lo ofrecido.

Really good quality and price. I bought this one which was sold cheaper than original cost due to being sold in good condition. Received it in in really excellent condition.price was only $12. I recently decided with my home weight training to add on resistance bands. I bought one other from this same company which was heavy resistance but I needed more resistance so I purchased this ultra resistance. I'm almost 60 so doing some resistance bands training will be another means to keep me motivated and in shape
