If you are making a transition from weight-based equipment, you may want to know how you can get the equivalent to what you had been using previously. This chart provides an estimate of what the equivalent weight of each Ripcords® exercise band provides.

RIPCORDS® TENSION APPROX. WEIGHT *
Yellow Ripcord Very Light 3 - 8 lbs
Orange Ripcord Light 8 - 14 lbs
Green Ripcord Medium 14 - 20 lbs
Red Ripcord Heavy 20 - 30 lbs
Blue Ripcord Very Heavy 30 - 42 lbs
Black Sniper Ripcord Extreme 42 - 62 lbs

* All weights are approximate because tension fluctuates depending on one’s height, the exercise, and how far a cord is stretched. Approximate weights refer to the tension for each arm when in a standing position with the cord evenly underneath the feet.
