Which one is better choice to choose, tube bands or loop bands?

Resistance bands are one of the most useful strength training tools. Unlike big and heavy dumbbells or kettlebells, resistance band are small and lightweight. You can carry them with you wherever you exercise. They can be used on almost every body part. And they don’t put too much stress on your joints. That’s why people use resistance band to achieve their fitness and strength goals.

Resistance bands on the market today are divided into two types: tube bands and loop bands. Although many people feel that they both work similarly. However, they are quite different, so let’s learn more about them below.

Tube band

A tube band is a resistance band like a jump rope. At its ends, there is an attachment point in the form of a handle or eyelet.
Tube resistance bands are also becoming more and more popular. Because it is more durable and has a padded handle. You can also equip the band with a variety of handles. Adjust the length of the band to meet your needs with the adjustable handles. Tube bands are used for upper body exercises because they can be equipped with pullers. This is more like a simple pulley pull rope but also can not strangle hands.
But because of the excessive accessories of the tube band, it will be inconvenient to carry. And the quality of tube band products is not uniform. Low-quality products are prone to aging, fracture, and other phenomena.

Loop band

A loop band is a flat and circle resistance band. The looped bands are connected in a complete circle like a large rubber band.
Depending on the length and thickness of the loop band there are two types of bands: regular size and resistance band. Both loop band options are suitable for lower body exercises.
The regular-size bands are suitable for both upper and lower-body exercises. Approximately 120CM long, they can help you perform chest exercises, pull-ups, etc.
The impedance force of the mini band is less than the conventional ring band. And they are very small and can be carried in your pocket. They are the ideal tool for performing hip exercises. Mini bands are great for increasing resistance to bodyweight exercise. Mini bands can also help keep muscles active during exercises, such as glute bridges.

The meaning of the different colors of resistance bands.

Resistance bands are now able to accommodate a wide range of ability levels. The color of the resistance band usually represents strength.
In general, pink and yellow lighter colors represent low intensity, suitable for beginners in fitness. Green and red represent moderate intensity, suitable for intermediate-level fitness. Dark gray and black represent high intensity. And they are suitable for advanced levels and for those who want to increase muscle size.
However, there is no uniform standard among resistance band manufacturers. So you should choose resistance bands based on your own intensity of use rather than color.
