I'm at an age that flexibility is non-existent and trying to maintain range of motion is a high priority. Pilates stretch bands lost their elasticity -or worse yet, snapped and hit me. I've even maneged to break tubes. This seems more likely to last, and consistently allows for increasing range of motion. 5 stars The following review received 6 helpful votes out of 6 total votes: Review Date: 2006-07-19 "Especially helpful for hamstring stretches" I first used this strap in physical therapy, for lower back problems. For those who are supposed to stretch their hamstrings daily, this strap is very handy. (Really you could do just about the same thing with a towel, but this just makes it much easier, and provides much better control.) I literally use this product every day. 5 stars The following review received 5 helpful votes out of 5 total votes: Review Date: 2006-02-24 "Wonderful tool for stretching/balancing!" I am a yoga instructor and was first introduced to this strap at an instructor training. I bought one and let some of my students try it out. They liked it so much that I bought several more and now use them regularly in my classes. It is also great for seniors or those who have challenges gripping a regular strap -- you can just place your hand(s) in the loop(s) and keep the hand(s) straight as you pull into the stretch. The loops provide a variety of options depending on how deeply you want to move into a stretch. In addition, it is useful for standing balance poses like dancer pose, as you can lift your leg up behind you while keeping the upper body even by placing two hands in prayer position in a loop up over your head. This gives you a nice stretch through the arms and shoulders as well.

It appears simple but extremely useful in the stretching exercise.
