Elastic resistance is a unique type of resistance training compared to other traditional forms, such as isotonic or isokinetic resistances. The resistance provided by these elastic bands are based on the amount that the band is stretched. This resistance can be measured in pounds of force depending on the percentage the band is stretched from its resting length; this is known as “force-elongation”. Regardless of how long the band is before it’s stretched, the force produced at its stretched length depends on the percent elongation.
