Instroduction for using the band
1.How long should the band be?
Use starting length of band or tubing equal to length of lever arm
2.Where do I place the origin?
Align the origin in line with the axis of rotation,Ensure Force Angle is 0-15° at end range (physiologic end range, where muscle is at it’s shortest length) .Keep band within plane of motion
3.Exercise Dosing : Volume & Intensity
3-6 RM
10-12 RM
20-25 RM
4.Elastic Resistance Training Dose-Response
• 6-12 weeks training
• 3 times per week
• 2-3 sets
• 8-12 RM (10-15RM for older)
• 12-14 RPE
• gradual increase in sets, repetitions, & resistance
5.Elastic Resistance Progression
• Increase repetitions or resistance
• Progress to next color level to maintain proper biomechanics
– Don’t “shorten-up” on the bands; it will change the biomechanics of the exercise
– Doubling the band/tubing will double the resistance
• Increase the challenge of the exercise by changing posture, movement or stability
