Description
Upper body, arms, abs, legs, glutes – with the Perform Better Superbands, there are no limits to your training. They are suitable both for high-intensity demands in competitive sport and for effective stretching exercises in physiotherapy. The different resistance levels offer you numerous combination options and allow you to gradually increase your training intensity. Depending on your preference, you can train freely with the Superbands or secure them to a fixed anchor point to generate different training intensities (training stimuli).
Why train with Superbands?
The basic principle of training with Superbands is clear: the bands are made of rubber, and the further you stretch them, the greater the resistance. The bands pull back towards the starting point at the same time. During each exercise, your muscles must work both concentrically and eccentrically against the resistance generated. Training with Superbands therefore increases your strength whilst providing full muscle stimulation.

What resistance level do I need for which exercise?
The resistance level you choose for the Superband depends, on the one hand, on your own physical fitness and, on the other, on the muscle groups you wish to train.
The narrower versions are particularly suitable for effective and varied training in sprinting, strength training and athletics. They enable intensive exercises such as lunges, running drills, shuffles, shoulder presses, squats, accommodating resistance training and much more.
- Orange – 6 kg, 0.6 cm
The stronger versions are particularly suitable for assisting with pull-ups and dips. Thanks to the reduced resistance, even beginners can perform the exercises with ease. The Superbands can also be used in weightlifting to generate increased resistance and additional leverage.
