DynaPro Pro Grade Resistance Bands Review

2014 is the year of action for me. Not only have I been working on strengthening my core with fitness classes, I have also been strength training using resistance bands. When I first started strength training, I opted for cheap brands which broke within the first two months. Since then, I have found a reliable set of resistance bands made by DynaPro.


I came across DynaPro when I needed a stronger resistance band. For the past two months, I have been using a yellow band which is designed as an equivalent for 10 lbs. of resistance training. Below are the bands I have been testing from DynaPro:

Resistance Levels
Yellow - light version, 10 lbs.
Green - medium version, 20 lbs.
Red - heavy version, 30 lbs.

When starting out with resistance bands, I would recommend opting for a durable band that can withstand rigorous workouts. If you haven't used them before, try the yellow version from DynaPro and move up to green, then red when you are ready.


If you happen to use a band that is not very durable, it can snap and cause quite a bit of pain. I did this during a stretch months ago and managed to hit myself in the face. In the last few weeks of using DynaPro resistance bands, I noticed significant durability. The comfort grip handles are beneficial for repetitive motions due to the exhaustion of typical bands without this added bonus.


I've also noticed that DynaPro's bands are made from a sturdy latex material unlike my previous bands. I like this set of resistance bands because of the quality and sturdy construction. They have definitely put thought into making strength training as comfortable as possible. Strength training is daunting, but please buy yourself a high quality DynaPro set to avoid having to replace cheap sets from other brands. I love a company who can confidently say that their bands will last a lifetime!


DynaPro resistance bands come with an adjustable attachment, which allows you to adjust and maintain a consistent tension during workouts. Owning a set of these bands is highly beneficial for those of us who don't have time to spend hours at the gym. If you don't have a partner, use your surroundings to your advantage!

Not only are DynaPro resistance bands affordable, they are built to last. You can find them on Amazon:



Also, check out DynaPro on Facebook and Twitter. I like the fact that DynaPro stands behind their product, and continually strive to provide us with well-constructed bands.

Benefit of DynaPro resistance bands:

- Comfortable handle with no slip
- Adjustable attachment for reducing/increasing tension
- Highest quality latex on the market



I would highly recommend buying the whole set of bands, and using them as follows:

Yellow band - Months 1-2 (gradually introduce the green band during this time)
Green band - Months 3-5 (start using the red band slowly to build up endurance)
Red band - Months 6+

If you use DynaPro's resistance bands 2-3 times per week, you will notice a significant improvement in your strength and toning abilities.





All opinions are based on my own actual use of the product.

  8. While I have some weight to lose my fitness goals are more along the lines of toning so from what I've heard and read, resistance bands can help with that goal!

  12. I agree regarding the comments to safety. I started my resistance training with cheap bands too. I didn't get hurt when mine broke but they lasted only a few months and were a waste of money (and I could not even adjust for tension). Thanks for pointing out the safety aspect that most people (including me) would never had considered when choosing bands.
