day worker 296 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Does anybody use the asda exercise bands? If so how do you rate it? I bought some yesterday and hope to have a play this weekend! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.P.R 2,798 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 i assume you mean the 'cheap brand exercise elastic'? .... i bought a box..... was ok for the wee man.... the stuff i had wasnt very powerful...blue/green/yellow..... torn and broke easily..... keep a little bit of it for colourful band attachments on my sons catty.... but dont think its much good for anything else.... ofcourse.... the quality will vary between brands.....

I think the one he is on about is yellow the weakest, red is middle strength, blue is strongest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skittles 3 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 The better half bought them alongside the chocolate eclairs mainly to make her basket look healthier but yeah i used them to tie rabbit skin and let the ferret have go at it. If you have an elastic fetish theyll do your job otherwise well i wouldnt bother Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the one he is on about is yellow the weakest, red is middle strength, blue is strongest I bought a set like that from Poundstretcher - f***ing useless ! .Tripled up the strongest band and it still rubbish - nowhere near enough power. Reduced from £10 down to £2, so hey-ho! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
day worker 296 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Oh great that's cheered me up no end! Thanks for the feedback though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 5,966 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 The Asda bands I bought are decent enough. Check out the video of gamekeeper John chronoing them on YouTube. I've been mucking about with double blue bands and their powerful and lasting well so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These are Fit4Life brand stretch bands with a pic of a bird doing exercises on the box? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.P.R 2,798 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 mine were from B&M's.... ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 5,966 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 mine were from B&M's.... ... Not the same ones then mate. The Asda ones with 3 strengths in the box are 6 quid a box or 2 for a tenner and well worth a try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,568 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 mine were from B&M's.... ... Can't get my Mrs out of that fecking shop! I've never seen the bands in regular Asda stores, but there's one of those huge "Asda/Walmart super-warehouse things" a few miles away - might bob down over the weekend and check a set out................but the Poundstretcher set are definitely to be avoided !

day worker 296 Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 That's good to hear thanks gnipper! I'll let you all know how I get on with them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TRUEBRIT66 1,176 Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Im no expert but the Asda bands I have on my catty are doing ok and the blue appear to be as good as TG imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
