TPR Non Latex Stretch Bands

[JannR]

Does anyone know if the colors of the stretch bands from Fitness by Cathe are different intensities and is so what they are?
Pink, Blue and Green.
Thanks!

I couldn't swear to it but I think pink=light, blue=medium and green=heavy.

Thanks Catherine!! That is what I had written down but could not remember if it was the the stretch bands.

And while I am on the subject and this could be for the bands and/or Toning tubes, is there an equivalent weight to the resistance chart? Like Heavy (red) toning tube = 10 pound weights. Just curious.

Not that I am aware of.

I don't know about Cathe's bands/tubing, but many manufacturers have a chart that lists resistance of their bands/tubes (usually at 2x their length, I think: remember that with bands and tubing, resistance varies depending on how stretched out they are.) If there is not such a chart on here, you could maybe go to the manufacturer's site and find one.

Thanks Kathryn! While searching for such a chart I found this...
