Drapers Strength Heavy Duty Resistance Stretch Loop Bands for Powerlifting Workout Exercise and Assisted Pull Ups

Just received the Green band and it is better suited for light to medium resistance band workouts. Just stated to use this one and it feel like a good quality band at this point. Read more

I bought the 6-band set and have found them extremely durable and useful. At my stage of strength development, I use the red, black, and purple bands the most. The purple bands are perfect to add resistance to some of my exercises. I attach them to the various Hammer press machines, which provides additional and increasing force when pushing; it helps keep my movement strict and steady, preventing any "bouncing" of the weights. I've had an amazing pump after using these bands. Looking forward to graduating to the green band very soon. I use the black and red bands by themselves for simple warm-up and stretching exercises. The red is perfect to take to work and stretch to get a mini pump after sitting at the desk for a couple hours! When the package arrived, I was very impressed with how solid feeling and thick the range of bands were. The green and blue bands are monsters! Not your child's rubber bands! Very thoughtful to match the band color with the color of the mini bands to wrap them up! NOTE: The package comes with ONE band per color. If you plan on using them with a barbell or on a Hammer strength machine, you'll probably need a 2nd set for each color. I bought another pack because I was so impressed with them! Read more

Draper bands are last lasting and high quality. They are far superior to other brands given by physical therapists that break after a few weeks. Draper bands provide most of the benefits of working with weights, even heavy weights, but they have the great advantage of weighing just a few ounces so they can be packed for travel. Read more

Drapers have always been the best resistance bands. I've been using this exact band to warm up before my upper body days for almost 10 years. They do tear after a while but that's pretty typical for how often they get used. Read more

Arrived just as hoped. Really happy with the purchase. Such great quality. Read more

Great for warming up the shoulders before heavy bag work or lifting Read more

The price of some of these brands of resistance bands seems attractive but you can at least double or triple the price if you actually use these bands for training. This latest disappointment occurred after I set up the bands for box squats for the following day’s training. When I returned the in the morning, the band was off the sleeve of the squat bar and no longer a loop. This particular band had very little mileage on it but I checked for damage that may have led to it tearing completely. I found that the band had come apart at the seam; there is a male end and female end that mate and the seam is sealed somehow. The two ends had pulled apart at this mating point. I’ve had other problems with Draper bands but they’ve always replaced them when I felt I hadn’t caused the issue (loss of elasticity and scalloping for example). Now their website is gone and the customer service links are dead ends. I will only buy from Elite FTS from now on. I’d started since buying these green Draper’s and the difference in quality is obvious. Consistent tension from band to band, real rubber, and accurate tension tables stand out the most. And the contribution they make to fitness from an education and information aspect are unmatched in the industry. Worth the seemingly extra money but you will save over time if you use them with any regularity. Read more
