Resistance Band
A resistance band is an elastic implement whose tension generally changes as it is stretched; actual resistance depends on the band and elongation.
Movement and evidence
A resistance band is an elastic implement whose tension generally changes as it is stretched; actual resistance depends on the band and elongation. Exercise setup and variation change joint demands and muscle contribution. The cited evidence supports specific tested conditions, not universal isolation or one mandatory technique.
