Flexible tapes, also known as resistance rubbers, have gained immense popularity in recent years and have become an integral part of modern training and rehabilitation programs. Because of their versatility, effectiveness, and ease of access, they are often used in gyms and physiotherapy clinics. Does such use of these accessories actually bring any benefits?
How do resistance rubbers function and what is their mode of utilization?
Resistance rubbers constitute multi-purpose training and rehabilitation equipment. They are composed of latex or other synthetic materials that resist stretching. The operation of resistance rubbers is based on the concept of progressive resistance. The more they are stretched, the more force is required to carry out a movement. Their resistance can be adjusted to meet individual requirements, making them a perfect tool for both beginners and advanced users. A fundamental characteristic of resistance rubbers lies in their capacity to generate variable resistance during movement – resistance progressively increases during stretching, facilitating effective muscle engagement or refining specific movements across different stages.
