TheraBand Rubber FlexBar, red

Great product! Multiple uses - for tennis elbow (main reason for my buying it), training of flexors, extensors of wrist, thumb adductors/abductors.Will be getting the green soon as the red (which I got) is of a lower tension.

Excellent physiotherapy product

Good quality. Red is advisable to start with.

I bought this product because I have a long term elbow/forearm strain injury that I could not seem to heal from (I’ve had it for about five years). After using the flexbar for about three months, I have started to feel noticeable improvement.There are plenty of video tutorials online that show you how to get the best from it, and once you work out which exercises to use you will soon feel the benefit.

My personal trainer (the best I've had & very knowledgeable) recommended that I get a Theraband Flexbar to improve my hand and wrist strength, which I've noticed is not as strong as it used to be. I'm 61, fit and healthy, with strong legs but my upper body strength needs improvement. I've noticed that I'm finding it harder to get twist caps off bottles, plus I've got 'Golfers Elbow', even though I don't play golf! The thinnest Flexbar is yellow, the next one up in the range is red - ideal for starting off if you're not too weak, particularly females. It's made of solid flexible rubber, 30cm long x 3.5cm across. It comes sealed in thick cellophane wrapping, with a User Guide wrapped around the Flexbar. There are 2 exercises with b&w photos of a person using the Flexbar, and very brief instructions under each photo. The instructions didn't make sense to me, not descriptive enough, which was disappointing. I recommend that you look up online videos on how to use it. My PT, Nick of No Regrets Training, has online videos showing how to do a variety of exercises with the Flexbar. He also has an older Theraband Flexbar Instruction Manual, published in 2005, with 26 exercises (see my photos). Maybe Theraband should consider updating the Manual and including it with their Flexbars ...

The flex bar is easy to use, and is helping with my pain. My Physical therapist suggested one for home use to help with grip strength and elbow pain. It is durable and I can already tell a difference with hands and elbow. Great value!

For exercise

I'm a guitar player who suffered from chronic golfer's elbow from 2009 until 2016. Symptoms got bad to a point where I had to drop out of university in guitar and stop playing altogether for a long time. I tried icing, stretching, light dumbbell exercises and physiotherapy which seemed to improve the situation temporarily but not completely. For a while I saw no way out of it, I felt depressed and I thought I'd had to live with this condition for the rest of my life.Then couple years ago, for fun, I started boxing. I enjoyed the sport and it generally added strength in my upper body, including the arms, helping greatly with my golfer's elbow. Afterwards a good physiotherapist and the Theraband came along and I can say the symptoms are 90% gone, i'm back into music full time and I'm playing better than ever. For the remaining 10%? Well sometimes I feel a pinch, but the pain is minimal and lasts seconds instead of days.Chronic tendon problems are an annoying and debilitating burden. There is no miracle cure! Give it time, educate yourself on the subject of tendinopathy, reduce stress, mind and body are more connected than we think, get active and get the Theraband. It has been specifically designed to cure our type of issue. Start with the lighter one, 'red', then progress to 'green'. Follow a plan, the goal is to do as many repetitions as you can with little or no pain, stick to it and be dedicated. Slowly you will get better, it took me months to improve and reduce symptoms but it did resolve.
