Was wondering what is the prefered company to use when buying tubing bands and stretch bands? Have not had a good experience with the quality of therabands product very cheap and they don't last very long! Any help is appreciated , specifically the stretch bands used in Yuri's shoulder mobility routine!

Thanks

I've always had luck with the bands from Lifeline. I've only ever busted one and it was at least 6-7 years old.

For the type of thing Yuri is doing you would want a loop type band. A lot of weight lifting suppliers have them. Or you can go to the source where Yuri learned the basics from - Dick Hartzel's Flexband.

With the Threaband, I bought their tubbing which will last longer than the thin band style. It's possible to join the tubbing into a loop by using a small dowel. I haven't found anything that stretches as well as Theraband, they have a very good rubber formula.

Jump stretch has very good quality loop bands. Elitefts often has good deals on their bands but not the same quality

They had Jump stretch in the past, I still have some I think. Good bands also.

I've been using the original Deuser band for about three months and it's the best I've ever tried. It has the perfect amount of tension and stretch and has so far proven durable.
