Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Blue (Heavy) and Black (X-Heavy) resistance?
In the TheraBand color-coded progressive resistance system, Blue is Heavy resistance and Black is X-Heavy resistance. Black provides more resistance than Blue, making it the next step in the progression for users who have mastered Heavy resistance exercises. Including both in this set allows the user to progress from Heavy to X-Heavy without purchasing additional bands separately.

What exercises can I do with these bands?
TheraBand exercise bands can be used for a wide range of upper and lower body exercises including shoulder strengthening, rotator cuff rehabilitation, bicep and tricep exercises, hip and knee strengthening, ankle rehabilitation, and core stabilization. Your physical therapist or trainer can design a specific exercise program using these bands based on your rehabilitation goals or fitness objectives.

Are TheraBand exercise bands latex-free?
Standard TheraBand exercise bands contain natural rubber latex. If you or your patient has a latex sensitivity, use TheraBand CLX or TheraBand latex-free exercise bands instead. Always confirm latex content before use if there is any known or suspected latex sensitivity.

How do I know when to progress to the next resistance level?
A general guideline is to progress to the next resistance level when you can complete 3 sets of 15 repetitions of an exercise with good form and minimal fatigue using your current resistance level. Always consult your physical therapist or treating clinician for specific progression guidance based on your rehabilitation protocol.
