Description
Overview
Red is the second-lightest band in the Reynolds Resistance range, rated 6.8–11.3 kg. Its job is different from the heavy colours: rather than lifting an athlete to the bar, it adds a small, controlled load to stretches, mobility routines and low-intensity strength exercises such as curls and extensions.
That makes it the band a PE teacher reaches for at the start of a lesson, and the one a coach hands to a player easing back into training. If you need meaningful help on pull-ups, choose a heavier colour from the Reynolds Resistance range.
Key benefits
- Adds light 6.8–11.3 kg resistance to stretching and joint mobility routines.
- Allows gradual strength building for players returning to training.
- Suits partner exercises with younger or lighter students.
- Only 0.2 kg, so a whole class set weighs next to nothing.
Who it's for
Primary and intermediate PE classes, junior club warm-ups and rehabilitation-style sessions where the load must stay low. It is also a good first band for adults new to resistance training.
Anyone wanting real assistance on chin-ups should look at the Pull Up Band – Green (23-34kg) or the Pull Up Band – Blue (45-54kg) instead; red will not carry enough of the load.
Care, safety and set-up
Keep the band away from sharp objects and heat, and check it for splits before each session. Store it loosely rather than stretched. Covered by the store's 12-month guarantee.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use the red band for assisted pull-ups?
Only for a very light nudge. With a 6.8–11.3 kg range it is built for stretching and light resistance; the green, blue and black bands are the pull-up assistance options.
Is it suitable for rehabilitation work?
The supplier lists rehabilitation and gradual strength building among its uses. Follow the guidance of your physiotherapist or coach on load and technique.
Can a school order enough for a whole class?
Yes. Add the quantity to your cart, or request a quote and ask about funding packages available to schools and clubs.
