How much force is produced when Therabands are stretched?
The force is directly related to amount of stretch. Each color provides a certain amount of resistance at the same percent elongation. For example, a 1-foot piece stretched to 2-feet (100% elongation) has the same force as a 2-foot piece of the same color stretched to 4-feet. When you increase band resistance level, you increase that set amount of force. So, when you stretch two bands, one yellow and the other gold, to 100% elongation, the yellow band will produce 3 pounds of force, and the gold, a walloping 21.5 pounds! Refer to our resistance level chart for detailed information.
