R:loopXL has all the benefits of the r:loop in a longer length. XL=extra long 10 inch diameter loop. R:loop XL is ideally suited for large range exercises. R:loopXL is durable, easy-to-use, latex-free, hypo-allergenic, made in the USA, requires no attachments, and provides graded resistance throughout the full range of motion.

Why is r-loopXL better?
Increased comfort means increased compliance. The soft-stay design of the loop provides superior comfort by virtually eliminating the rolling up and pinching that is associated with conventional bands and tubing. Users with pain, swelling, tenderness, or limited grip strength can use r-loop with ease.
Factory testing on the r-loop has exceeded 650,000 repetitions on a single loop without breakage; the competition boasts longevity of 10,000-20,000 cycles. Not only does that mean fewer replacements and lower overall cost, it means saying goodbye to painful (and potentially harmful) snapping! The loops are seamless, so there is no danger of seam rupture.
R-loopXL is constructed of a patented material that stretches 10-12 times its resting length, which provides consistent, graded resistance throughout the full range of motion. Conventional bands and tubing stretch from roughly 1.5-3 times their resting length. In practical terms, this translates into difficulty obtaining resistance through the full range of motion with conventional bands; lengths that allow resistance in the early phases of the range then prohibit reaching the end range of motion because the elastic limit of the material has been reached. Conversely, lengths of bands and tubing that provide resistance at the end range of motion require the band/tubing to be slack in the early phase, disallowing complete training of the movement in its full range. R-loopXL’s superior range of elasticity eliminates this obstacle.
