These came packaged very well, and I was pleased by the presentation. When you take out the bands, you know you've bought a quality product. I love that the back of the bands being black, as well. I've never seen pink getting used for band color - coding. But it's not about the color, it's about the weight ranges, and that is displayed on each of the bands for you to see. I specifically wanted the pink and green bands for its lighter loads doing shoulders. I'll explain how I do that. These may be pull up assistance bands, forever I also use these with a thin PVC pipe to do upper body day, leg kick backs, tricep dip assists, and yes, pull up assists. They're great with makeshift deadlifts, squats, arm curls, rows, you name it. They replace the pulleys in the gym also. These are ultra versatile and should be included in any home gym. You can use the pink one for more than you know, even though it's the smallest weight range, and if one of the names is not enough resistance for you, you can add the pink to make it even more difficult. That's why I highly recommend buying a whole set... And after looking at various ones this one is the best value here on Amazon. A few people are disappointed in these because they wanted to use this for a specific thing in the gym other than their intended purpose, and when it didn't work out they gave the product 2 or 3 stars. You can't replace weightlifts with multiple bands. It will never be the same. You just have to swallow your pride and spend the money on Olympic weights. Also, I never find myself wobbly when using these to assist in pulls or dips. However, I have used bands at the gym before. It could just be that you have to practice more. Other than that, these are amazing. I really loved expanding my gym equipment so that some of the things at a regular gym are more accessible to me. Read more
Pull Up Assistance Bands by Physix Gear Sport : The are the best set of bands I have run across since doing gym and lifting. Good for strength training and assisted pull-ups. Strong and Sturdy Exercise bands. Excellent for assisted Pull-ups. Surprisingly great for strength training as well. They are versatile for sure. A lot I have been able to do with these bands so far. I bought these to use while traveling and to get better at doing pull-ups. Exceeded my expectations. These bands feel strong, durable, and I expect to get a lot of use out of them. FYI, there was a "Resistance Loop Bands Guide" available when I received the Pull Up Assistance bands by Physix Gear Sport from Amazon. Not hard to download but decent little guide as well. Very happy with my purchase and what it allows me to do while traveling and at home. Read more
So I absolutely love this product. I've never been able to do a pull up in my life. It's not like I'm overweight, but I have puny muscles, and I'm a tad jiggly. Skinny-fat, if you will. So I got these assistance bands and they help so much! I have three roommates and we all use them. I just attach them to the pull up bar on our door, or the guys use them for more challenging pushups. They hold up immensely well, and the thickest supports me and doesn't snap in half, so it's made of great, sturdy, quality material. Now, thanks to these bands, I can do about 10 pull ups (of course, they're assisted, but it's an accomplishment for me)! I can feel myself getting stronger! Read more
Good quality at a great price! I've used my bands for assisted pullups and pelvic thrusts. Read more
Bought my first pack in January for my deadlifts and squats...and immediately bought the second pack a week later. Comparable to ETS or Rouge as far as tensile strength (which I can say they're pretty spot on about the weight ranges) and the quality is just the same. After three months of frequent use - no signs of wear/tear. Used them for reverse squats/deadlifts, warm-ups, banded KB swings, and anything else you can think of. Awesome thing about it? WAY cheaper than the popular brands which is great if you need a second pack. The length of the bands are just right - doesn't feel like you getting short-changed. Looking for resistance bands? Look no further. Read more
I have the blue and green band. I used other resistance bands along with the free weights at the gym and these feel to have a higher quality than those. The gyms around me are all closed now due to social distancing measures and these have been a life saver. I've had to modify my old routine a bit but I've done just about every workout that I can think of or find online and I have yet to question their durability. CON: Only one I could think of is that I couldn't find a combined set. Got the two to test and see how I liked it. If available I'd recommend getting the set. PRO: Exceeded all expectations.

Very nice bands and classy packaging. I bought 6 purple and tested 3 bands over a 40 inch pull. The maximum force was only approximately 32 kilograms or about 70 lbs! Their stated force is 120 to 175 lbs. I am assumming this is a range and not mazimum. I feel mislead, and I now must buy 6 more bands to achieve sufficient resistance for deadlifting. I also now need more than 6 bands for bench pressing. Read more
