Quick Select Xertube Resistance Band Exercise Cord

UPDATE: I was wrong. This band is great. It was just way too strong for me when I first got it, which us a good thing because I had room to grow I to it. I still struggle to get 8-10 reps in with this thing on some exercises, and that's actually great. This is now my go-to band that I take with me when I travel, and otherwise it hangs by my front door so I can get a quick lift in before I eat and dull the insulin response from the meal. Love it.It is very heavy though. I can bench about 250-275, and I struggle to get to 10 reps on this.Also, you shouldn't expect to change this band out much. It is a pain to get the band out of the handles. Much easier to spend a few more bucks and get separate handles for whatever bands you need. Personally, I just use this one and a $10 Golds Gym one from Walmart that is strong, but nowhere near as strong as this.Former review:This band was way too short in my opinion. It makes it hard to do anything beyond curls with it. Maybe if you're really strong, you could do other exercises like shoulder press and incline bench press like I do with my other band (the cheap $10 Gold Gym one from Wally Mart). But I am not strong enough to do anything but heavy curls and shrugs on this. It seems like it should be longer and thereby get into the power resistance later in the stretch.

Great addition to my work out equipment and compatible with my Gorilla Bow

Love them...they work great with the bands and I can attach to crossover cables also.Very well made...I have tried a few others....these work great

I got this as a replacement for my Marie Osmond Body Gym Bar. The old band snapped right at the cone tabs so I chose this one since it has an extra rubber sleeve over that area. Her band is red so I figured this one was probably the same or similar enough. It feels the same to me and the length feels the same. I can also use the handles that I have. It was difficult to find just a band and was temporarily using one with built in handles but that became to annoying having the handles flapping around. I had my other band for almost a year and this one feels like it will hold up. I use it mostly for my upper body and consistently used my other one 3-4 times a week.

It's ok. I bought this because I needed a little more resistance than my  Black Mountain Products Atomic Resistance Band, 70-75-Pound , which is supposedly 70-75 pounds. Unfortunately, the SPRI felt like less resistance than the Black Mountain band.The other complaint is that the Black Mountain band has handles already included, whereas for this band you have to buy handles.Other than that, the band felt nice. I only used it once to try out the resistance, so I can't comment on the durability or anything else really. But, I was disappointed that it didn't offer as much resistance as I was hoping.

The item does not have handles. The one I received was returned item.

I especially like the thick handle on this SPRI model. Exchanging cables with the SPRI model is actually no easier than on the Lifeline of SKLZ handles. The black collar on the SPRI cables (I have the SPRI blue and purple cables) is a good idea but it seems to be pinched at the bottom of these handles with these two thicker cables and I am concerned that they will be damaged over time due to the pinching.I purchased mine via Amazon for under $10 and when I returned to purchase a back up set for traveling with, the price jumped to over $15 which is annoying (not the first time this has happened with other products.) My son purchased his handles at the local Sports Authority for under $10, so I will wait until chance brings me to or close enough to duck into our local Sports Authority to purchase my back up set there.All in all, I love Amazon's customer service ethos and its convenience. However, its only these sudden boomerang pricing changes that annoy me.

I have broken three pseudo-SPRI black bands over the past five years during a weights/resistance bands class. Couldn't find a one-piece black Spri band, so decided to try it this way, with the separate handles and interchangeable bands, Had to guess which band to select, chose grey, found it to be roughly equivalent to the black Spri look-alike. A genuine SPRI band never has broken on me during use, and I'm hopeful that this one will follow suit. I was worried about assembly/disassembly after reading others' opinions that the process of changing bands was difficult. I don't find it so. Much easier than I had anticipated; in fact, pretty much a cinch.

Good product for combineing resistance bands fixed to loop handles. Have to cut the handel away from the band before installing it on new handle. Can add up to 3 bands for increased resistance. Make sure bands are all from the same manufacturer and more importantly are all the same length.

Good Product.

this is exactly the desired product
