Draper's Strength Heavy Duty Resistance Stretch Loop Bands for Powerlifting Workout Exercise and Assisted Pull Ups

I’ve had these resistance bands since March 2025, and they have been awesome so far. I use them especially for assisted pull-ups, and they provide the support I need while still letting me work on building real upper-body strength. They feel strong, durable, and reliable, which is important when using them for pull-up assistance. I also like that they can be used for warm-ups, mobility work, and other resistance exercises, but assisted pull-ups are definitely my main use for them. A great addition to my home gym essentials and very useful for anyone working toward stronger pull-ups at home.

I use these mini bands on barbells and the belt squat machine for powerlifting dynamic effort westside conjugate style training. If you are wondering, here are the cross sections of two especially relevant bands: Red Draper 57mm^2 Black Draper 99mm^2 Comparatively: Westside Black Monster Mini 81mm^2 So if you are looking for a band to work between the Draper Red and Draper Black, Westside is an option. You might also be able to just throw on a Draper Yellow next to a Draper Red to accomplish the exact same thing, but the one thing I have not done is tested the weight of such combinations in real terms. I recommend getting a hanging scale and using that to determine how much band tension you actually have on the bar. Since heights of people and lifts of course vary, you will want your own inputs. I also use these bands for various stretches, and they are VERY slippery out of the package. They also outgas like crazy. I threw them outside on the patio to breathe a bit, then washed them in the back. I still get a headache when I pull them out in a confined space. Might try scrubbing them with a green scratchy pad to get some grip out of them, breaking up the glossy exterior. That is just the chemical nature of these types of bands as far as I can tell.

I ordered a pull up bar, couldnt do 1 single pull up, I did all the exercises that lead up to my first pull up, still couldnt do it, but I found this on Amazon, super super supportive. Really helps you achieve your first or 2nd pullup with assisted band. Make sure to get a chair to help you climb up and position your foot inside the band. With how thick it is, which means extra strength and support, it is a little hard to get off your foot, esp if you have shoes, but after a week of using this it has helped me perform my first pull up leading towards my first 3, 4 in a row. Highly recommend this if you need help achieveing your first pullup. Not meant for long term use after you can do pull ups normally, regular pullups, or whatever variation you want without the band will benefit you in the long run trust me.

No saben la cantidad de bandas que he comprado a lo largo de cinco años , desde las menos resistentes hasta las mas resistentes, con el uso y el tiempo absolutamente todas se deterioran y se rompen, esta banda de drapers es la mas resistente de esta marca pero realmente es muy suave comparada con otras marcas en este mismo color naranja que indica en general la mas resistente. no digo que es mala calidad solo que no cumple con la resistencia esperada.

Flexible enough for multiple types of workouts. The resistance is good making it great for hip flexors and hamstrings. Compact and easy to carry along. The quality is good with no visible wear after a lot of use which is nice. The price was in line with other similar bands. (#02 red loop band)

I have a home built workout room that I have different weight stations and also 5' resistance band stations. I then found and bought a full set of draper's stretch bands for a great price. after using for a week I realized I liked them and bought a second set and the orange band, to have more ways to use them by doubling them up. And these bands work great for different ways of use, I have been looking for a different way of use to compliment my 5' resistance bands. So far so good I have been using them now for almost three weeks and love these. I give them 5 stars because I am happy with the price and quailty. the durability I give a 5 star also because they say if you have a problem to just contact them which you register them online and drapers responds I made a 36" bar to use them with, after not finding what I want online any where. the only bar that looked right was that x3 for $600 no thanks. I also made 2 others that turned out good the hooks have different offset from the bar which increases the length of the bands a 1.5" more and 2.5" more which makes these even more versatile

Not sure if all resistance bands come this way, but mine was fully connected and had to pill it apart to make a full circle. Beyond that great quality. I'm 210 lb and use this to help me do pull-ups.

Recibí las Bandas según las fotos y muy buena calidad.

Hasta el momento, prácticas y buena opción para una gran variedad de ejercicios. Les he dado uso rudo y se mantienen en buen estado.

These are very versatile bands. Love incorporating them with my workouts. Well worth the money if ur looking for some good resistance bands.
