As we near the end of 2016, many schools and universities are budgeting for next year’s expenditures. This means trying to figure out where to cut costs, especially when it comes to equipment for sports teams. At NZ Manufacturing, we’ve been manufacturing high quality resistance training tools since 1985. In the past three decades, we’ve seen a lot of competitors offer less expensive, and often inferior resistance band products, and we thought it would be critical to explain why you should be weary of purchasing these products simply to save money.
Why it Pays to Invest in High Quality Resistance Bands?
Reduce Injuries
The last thing that you want when it comes to training your athletes is to encourage a training regimen that results in injury. Unfortunately, some resistance bands are built using inferior materials, and manufacturing methods, which can result in injury. Cheap resistance bands are prone to breaking, which can result in the bands snapping back and potentially injuring an athlete.
At NZ Manufacturing, our resistance bands feature a strong nylon cord embedded inside our latex tubing, which helps to minimize over-stretching while still providing the security and safety that are critical when training athletes.
Resistance Bands can be Used in Place of More Expensive Training Equipment
Another financial benefit of resistance bands is that they can achieve the same results as much more expensive training tools. This allows schools, universities and other trainers to save money, yet still provide the highest level of training benefits for their athletes.
Our StretchCordz® line of resistance bands have been used by Olympians for decades and one of the reasons is that these training tools are so versatile. Andy Potts, an award winning swimmer, who actually competed in the 2004 Olympics had this to say about our resistance bands, “I try to use the StretchCordz® resistance bands on a daily basis…They are one of the few things that I can say have been in my training bag for my entire career.”
Our TurfCordz® are also extremely versatile, and can be used in place of a variety of other more expensive training equipment, such as football sleds. Because our products offer up to 200 pounds of resistance, they can help to increase endurance and strength, all while keeping the safety concerns that have plagued inferior resistance band products at bay.
Unfortunately with sports there is always the possibility of injury. Athletic Trainers turn to our MediCordz® rehabilitation tools in place of costly stationary rehabilitation equipment. Our portable gear can be used on the road, home or office.
NZ Manufacturing Products are Extremely Durable
In addition to being extremely effective, our resistance bands are highly durable and long-lasting. This goes back to our commitment to using the highest quality materials, and manufacturing processes to ensure that not only are our resistance bands safe, but they offer an incredible value for the athletes that use them.
